-
holy crap - I am lucky to do a full push up, though I did like the superman and the 360 wow0
-
Fingertip - check
Diamond - hard but check
Hindu - part of my daily warm-up
Spiderman - check
Clapping - check
Dragonwalk - check (these are a helluva workout)
Archer - never tried, not sure I can
Chest tap - never seen these before; they look hard
One-hand - check, no more than 3
One-hand, one-leg - nope
And the rest just get insane. No way in hell.0 -
those are crazy!! thanks for ideas!0
-
nooooooo superman is the best lol0
-
HOLY F..!!!! I have trouble doing one normal push up lol0
-
that is just the kind of stuff I want to be able to do *added to goal list*
I can do regular push-ups and push-ups with my feet on an elevated surface. Diamond push-ups are next on my list to try (they were before I saw this video, as someone advised me they're good for triceps) but don't yet know if I can do them or not.
The other ones will be added to my goal list in order of difficulty.... (some of them my long term goal list lol)0 -
Very impressive. I am good up to the one arm push ups. Once it got to the one leg/1 arm & beyond, yea those are gonna be tuff0
-
We do various types of push ups in our TKD class. But there is no way in HELL that I will ever EVER show this video to my instructor!! LOL0
-
What the F? What psycho, nut-bag came up with half of those? My face doesn't trust me enough to try half of that list.0
-
Bahaha, that is impressive and insane, yet I had to hold my laughter,. Especially at the Hindu push ups and the guy doing pull ups!0
-
wow, that was impressive! gotta try some of those.0
-
HOLY *kitten* BALLS!!! THIS DUDE IS FREAKING STRONG. The first few seconds I thought Oh I can do those until he became a freaking acrobatic flying monkey.0
-
I was good up until the one handed stuff. My guess is I could probably do them but I've never tried. I'm not totally sure I have the balance for that.0
-
Fingertip - Yes, don't do max reps, but 10 as part of my warmup
Diamond - Easy
Hindu - Easy, more of a conditioning exercise
Spiderman - Little harder on the core, still easy
Clap - Can do 3 claps per rep
Dragon Walk - Never tried, but it seems like a one arm emphasized variant
Archer - Haven't done them in a long time, last 2 arm step in the progression to one arm pushups
Chst tap - Never tried, similar to clap pushups though, if you can do a double clap, the chest tap should be no problem
One arm - Can do 11 per arm on the form he's using, 5 reps each with a feet shoulder width
One arm one leg - Never counted, but it is a bit of a party trick. Isn't really much harder than a one arm pushup, when doing shoulder width one arm pushups, one of the legs is just there, you can lift it up and it doesn't affect the difficulty at all, the leg is merely acting like a counterweight.
Knee Slap - I've seen it, but never tried it.
One arm clap - I prefer to side switch instead of clapping when doing plyo one arm pushups (like Rocky does). Can do 3 reps each arm doing side switch plyometric OAP's.
Muy Thai - Another plyo pushup variant I've seen but never tried.
Aztec - These are a quite hard plyo pushup variant, never tried personally, I'm not that big into plyometrics. He's got a quite powerful plyometric pushup.
Superman - WTF, seems like a reverse aztec pushup. Never seen that one.
Triple Clap - Another standard plyo pushup variation, I do the 3 claps in front. Have to try the behind the back clap like that.
Lalanne Pushup - Know of them, never tried, front lever pulls work the exact same muscles in a much larger ROM, I work those.
Crucifix - Similar to a maltese pushup, but a maltese pushup has the arms at a 45 degree angle toward the waist instead of straight out. Don't paricularly like the crucifix pushup angle at the shoulder. Maltese pushups hit your pecs hard.
360 pushup - Damn, that's pretty crazy.
No handstand pushups?
Where at the planche pushup variations? Beyond one arm pushups, almost everything he does is a plyometric variation, not strength variations. A well done pseudo planche pushup is about as hard as a one arm pushup, and that is the easiest variation of the family, which get very, very hard (few people on this earth are strong enough to do a full planche pushup with good form).0 -
Where at the planche pushup variations?
If I'm showing off, I show off the things I'm good at. Getting good at plyo is far easier than going into planche, and looks a lot better to people that aren't familiar with it.0 -
If you like these, he has another video on his channel called "44 best body exercises" and they are pretty much just as mind blowing if not more so. ^_^ Definitely inspiring to try out new things.0

Triple Clap & 360 push ups!!!! WTF!
I am still working on the basic 100 push up program! 4th attempt!
These look awesome and gives me something to aspire to!0 -

Some real quality straddle planche pushup reps can be found at 0:30 in this video (the whole video is amazing). Most of what you see on youtube is garbage, for it to "count" the arms need to lock out, the back has to stay straight, and the back angle has to stay consistent.
Straddle planche pushups look a little cooler, but closing the legs into a full planche makes them harder. Very rare to find a single quality rep of a full planche pushup.
He also has some great tutorials on how to get there.0 -
thanks0

So I tried the archer push-ups- these weren't too bad. Mostly a balance issue.
Then the chest tap push-ups - [insert your favorite expletive] face-planted twice, but got them done. They are a lot harder than clapping push-ups.
Finished with clapping push-ups, one-armed push-ups, and then some regular ones because that's all I had left.0
