    There's a machine at the gym called a LAT pull down. You sit on a bench and lock a little padded support bar over your knees. Then you reach up and grab a bar and pull it down toward your chest. I can't tell you exactly why, but that's worked for me.

    Try doing the push-ups with your knees and shins on the floor. That makes them easier for me.

    If you cant do a regular push up or a "girl push up" you can always brace your hands in the proper position on a wall with your feet about 2 feet away (deeper if you can, less if you cant) Its a great way to start training the muscles without putting all your weight on them

    You can do pushups on the wall too, or I would recommend using the chest press at the gym. It sucks less.

    If you have a droid or iphone they have an app called hundred pushup challenge... it puts you on a daily push up plan to build the amount you can do. I am starting with girly push ups until I can rock out the real thing.
