Push-ups from the floor are distinguished by their simplicity and at the same time great efficiency, since you can do without any auxiliary items and sports equipment. All kinds of push-ups can be done arbitrarily and in any convenient place, not necessarily in the gym. Every young man must be able to do push-ups, and it’s not at all necessary to set records, but this is necessary for training your own body, strengthening the upper shoulder girdle of the muscles, as well as the pectoral muscle, and in general, to be always in great shape and have a beautiful male figure.
Types of push-ups are different, but they all contribute to good physical fitness, body strength and endurance. In order to achieve any high results, you need to start with push-ups from the floor, especially since this exercise is universal and suits any age category. You can perform it in different ways - it all depends on how the body was trained before. The pumping of any part of it directly depends on the position of the hands, and the types of push-ups allow you to load almost all muscle groups. For these exercises you need to follow some important rules.
First of all, it is necessary that the initial stance be adopted correctly. The further push-up technique from the floor also depends on this. The main position is to take emphasis lying down.
In this case, the hands should be straight and apart from each other at a distance of shoulder width and at chest level. Keep your back straight, legs should be together, elbows should be directed at an angle corresponding to forty-five degrees from the body. Correct stance contributes to even load distribution. When lowering, the body should touch the floor, with the greatest stretching of the muscles. It is also necessary to breathe correctly: at the beginning of the exercise you need to take a breath, at the end - exhale. Arbitrary breath holding or, vice versa, its increased frequency may adversely affect the body and training in general.
If the hands are close to each other, then the load will lie on the triceps and pectoralis minor muscle.
In the case of the location of the arms along the width of the shoulders, the load will be distributed evenly between the muscles of the chest and deltas, as well as the triceps.
At the widest possible position of the arms in relation to each other, the load distribution is on the deltoid and pectoralis major muscles.
Types of push-ups require certain skills. The most common basic exercise is pushing your palms off the floor. Having correctly performed the stand from the “lying down” position, place your hands across the width of your shoulders and, accordingly, at chest level, with a straight back and legs together, you need to start to lower to the floor, and then touch it with your chest. After that, lift the body up. In this form, the load is evenly distributed on the muscles of the chest and arms.
The next view is push-ups on the fists from the floor. For those who devote a lot of time to martial art, this exercise will strengthen their knuckles and increase the striking power of their hands. The main thing you need to pay attention to is to try to do push-ups using only two front knuckles, while the rest should not touch the floor.
Push-ups with the back of the hand very well strengthens the hands. It is quite painful and uncomfortable, but over time, these sensations pass. Deltoid and arm muscles are exposed to the load.
Types of push-ups, in addition to their variety, are striking in their extraordinary nature. For example, you can push up on the edge of the palm. In hand-to-hand combat, this exercise is the main one. Hands are pressed to the body and are located below the chest level at shoulder width, placed on the edges of the palms. The main load falls on the muscles of the hands and hands.
Pushing up on the fingers from the floor is the most difficult type of exercise. The stand is made on five fingers from an emphasis lying down. As a result of numerous workouts, the fingers are gradually removed, and ultimately the push-up will be done with one hand and one finger. But this training may take more than one year.
Very difficult and dangerous is push-ups in a handstand, while the head is below. You need to perform it near a support, for example, a wall. Initially, the initial position is taken, after which you need to throw your legs on the wall and touch the heels of the support. It is necessary to lower to the level to which the body allows, then the body slowly to raise. The effort during the lifting is incredible, but the person who is able to perform this complex push-ups will be a model of endurance and great strength. However, such exercises are contraindicated for people with high blood pressure and headaches.
