      Have you thought about adding more shoulder based exercises to your routine like the handstand push-up? Easier version would be stuff like pike push up, elevated pike push up or a pike hold for example

      @@DrPeterLankton381 I agree, but that's not all of it, I think. Some people need, deep in their hearts, to be pushed. Hampton's super great as a trainer as what he does works for the great majority of people. But I think ideally you get to know your trainee and give them what they need, be it encouragement or a solid kick in the butt. Just my opinion on what's the ideal trainer though; as I said, Hampton's still top tier already.

      No matter where we are on our journey, there's always someone who's more advanced and also less advanced. A small setback or success can move us either way so it's important to be mindful of this when comparing to others. We are merely a reflection of one another. Should our circumstances be even slightly different, who knows where we'd be on our journey. Small changes over time can do tremendous things. A small, constant drip of water, given enough time, can wear through the thickest rock.

    Almost a year later, I can now do 69 pushups(3 sets of 23...Looking to increase it to 25 next week) and I'm weighting 91kgs...Besides all the exercises that I learned to LOVE to do, I'm 22kgs lighter and looking to not stop at anytime soon.
    And I started with your tips, swallowing my pride and doing kneeling pushups.
    You helped me change my life.

    I've always struggled with weight, about 5 years ago I was able to do a thousand push-ups in a day. It took me about 5 months to get there from literally not being able to do five push-ups and I weighed about 230lbs at the time. Anyway I ended up injuring myself and life happened and I stopped working out. 2 months ago I got on the scale and weighed 280 lb and I couldn't even do a push-up I had no muscle. 2 months later I've lost about 12 lb and I'm gaining all that muscle back quicker than I thought. But anybody out there watching this I just want to say it's possible, it just takes commitment and you really need to want to be healthy. I'm turning 30 this year and I don't want to try reversing diabetes in 20 years, I'm going to proactively prevent diabetes with exercise and good diet. So much of the food in the stores is garbage, nutritional information is so important.
    Boy that was long-winded, I really appreciate your videos my dude.

The muscles I gained from being so heavy made it easier the more consistent I stayed.

    This channel made me start doing a little bit of strength training, and for the first time in my 40 years of life it seems I might manage to continue with it. Usually I quit quite soon, because it's simply too painful. Wall pushups (and "wall pullups" from another video, the first one I saw) was an eye-opener for me. I can do about 10 normal pushups, but I _hate_ it and feel broken afterwards. Which means I stop after a couple of days. Knee-pushups don't work for me because of some knee-issues, but using walls/chairs/kitchen counter... that I can do! :-) Thanks!

    It might sound stupid but it actually does the job for me.
    Working out at home is very hard, especially getting started because I'm quite lazy.
    After I take a bite out of that chili my body starts to heat up and it's easier for me to work out at home.

    I like doing pushups on stairs. The higher up the easier more reps, the lower the step less reps

      I saw a guy doing negative push-ups on his porch stairs...feet on the first step, hands on the ground. That's my goal, this video will help me get there!
