I can do regular pushups. I can do decline pushups. But I can't for the life of me do a military pushup. What is so weak on my body that I can't get my elbows to move backwards?? I know pushups require a strong core but I can do several other kinds of them and have a six pack. Does your weight have to go forward or backward? Are there other muscles I should be strengthening?
