For those of you who do the military push up, do you go down all the way til your chest meets the floor? Tried today but im to embarrased to say how many i managed to do.

    I can't get ask the way down without falling. I can get through most of the circuit without song but still have issues at times. At least you are doing them and trying to get better. I have no problem to go to my knees either.
  • I haven't mastered those yet. I'm only on week 2 and I don't think I'll master them without doing some accessory work first. I've been reading up on how to master the pushup and most of what I've read have said do NOT do the "modified" on your knees pushup, they will never help you master the pushup.

    I do not try to make my chest touch the ground. I just try my best to get my arms at a 90 degree angle when I go down but still don't always do that. Getting better though & I think if she keeps the pushups in there, I'll be able to progress in them. Just in week 3 here.
