    Tiger pushups or tricep extension pushups are absolutely tremendously hard, they're probably one of the hardest pushups because it only uses your tricep in a strange position

  • @jonrwert
    @jonrwert Місяць тому +7

    There's a lot of pressure through the elbow in a 1-arm pushup. This is probably fine for most (younger) people, but if you've tweaked your elbow like me going into your 40's this may not be ideal anymore.
    But if people want to get there, there's one extra auxiliary exercise I'd recommend. Just the 1-arm push-up top plank hold. Set a timer for 15 or 20 seconds, and switch to just the extended one-arm plank. This will train the core in ways it needs to ready for to do 1-arm push-ups without having all sorts of sagging and twisting in your torso and hips. It's actually a pretty challenging exercise and can be a fun plank variation to try to do it for 2-3+ minutes switching hands every 15-20 seconds. You'll notice the way your core has to brace in the 1-arm position quickly.

  • @HoangHuy-on5po
    @HoangHuy-on5po Місяць тому

    In my opinion, all you should do is just spamming regular push up day by day. When i start working out, i choose push up as my excercise and then, i try one arm push up and fail. Since then i just keep spamming regular ones day by day, and once my tricep got stronger, i try again and success. So if you want to do one arm push up, just ignore it, keep doing normal one and then, through the process, you will be able to do it automatically

    This video is both hard to not insult and hard to insult more than it deserves.
    1) the only movement in the video that is somewhat specific to oapu's are archer pushups. This is usually where you BEGIN your oapu progression. You have to do A LOT more one-arm stuff to prepare for oapu's
    2) oapu's are especially hard on the core, shoulders (including stabilizers) and serratus. Plank holds are nowhere near enough to prepare your core.
    3) explosive pushups AFTER being able to do 10 triceps extensions? That's like learning to solve linear equations before learning to multiply. Most of all: you don't even need to be able to do tri extensions for the oapu.

      So you mean I can start the "one-arm stuff" even I can't plank properly?
