    I don't know a single "Trish" in real life. The only ones I know are in movies or television shows or video games.

    Modify using the stairs, or a nice sturdy chair. Using the stairs are nice because they don't move/wiggle, and you can start with your hands higher up for easier pushups, and then work your way down.

    Oh I so agree, I also suck at pushups - although I am working on it and still only 2 in a row, I really do hope that gets better with time and if not then I guess it just isn't meant to be :ohwell:

    do them every morning when u wake up and before you go to bed... if you workout at a gym.. do it before your work out... my wife started not being able to do a single chin up or a "regular" push up and now she can do 21 push ups in a row and about 4-5 chin ups

    I was there. It IS possible!!! Don't give up! Start doing other chest exercises, like flyes and benching. You'll be amazed!


    ETA: Also... I used to HATE them. I told my trainer to pick other things because they just were no fun, and I like to enjoy my workouts. So I gave up on them for about 3 months. When I went back... I could do double what I was doing before!
