  • i was also facing the same problem, then i started with wall push ups. I was able to do 50 count in one set. Then started with floor push ups. But at the beginning i was not able to go down fully. But now i can do 10 sets of 5. My advice is try to increase your upper body strength with planks and wall push ups.
