That was really fun to watch, Jim. Great job. I am focusing more on push-ups in my workouts, and I think even absolute beginners can work them in. Why not start with our knees on the floor? Especially if we are older, significantly overweight, or both.
GREAT FORM! NICE JOB.
Scott, better to start in an elevated position than on the knees, even if someone is overwieght and/or older, your core will be more engaged in that position
Scott I agree with K. Definitely want to start on an incline position if you are a beginner with pushups, overweight, or just trying to build strength. Core is a huge component of the pushup, along with proper shoulder stability. Start on a table then work your way down. Give your self a number of reps to achieve before you progress.
