I currently cant even do one push up. I can do 1 or 2 on my knees but I dont think Im doning them properly so Im probably cheeting! Is there anyone out there that has done CLX and started in the same boat but can now do push ups? She claims I will become a push up machine lol but I have my doubts!!

Do you have stairs?
You could prop yourself against a stair and do them until you can on your knees :]0 -

One of my weight training instructors used to tell to do them against the wall as a modifier.0

Do you have an exercise ball? I've been building up my endurance with that. The higher the ball is under you, the easier it is to do a push up. I'm slowly trying to get the ball down to my feet.0

Hi
My mom used to do push ups against a counter (kitchen/bathroom). This way you can do more at once and in theory gain strength and work up to normal push ups, just an idea0 -
You can do them against the wall to start with. Next, do them against the edge of a chair backed up to a wall for support. After that gets easy, try them on the floor again.0
