    Thanks. I have added push-ups into my strength training so I will think about better form. I was also surprised to hear that women can't do regular push-ups. But that is not going to stop me from eventually trying.

    It doesn't say women can't. It says he's surprised at how many women can't. I can do them... not many, but I can do a few, and I fully intend to be knocking out 20 in a row by the end of the summer.
