Rocky sucks: Push-ups one-armed WHILE clapping

[malpa3]

pussy

[JofoTubin]

Impressive, I won't deny. But now close your legs and do it like a man.

[superman1987kk]

WOW... Now thats what I call one arm push ups! great job!

[nguyenjohn357]

rocky puts his hand behind his back when he does the push up

[Rarez2]

You can do that because you don't fully "extend" the arm and leave it "mid way". As if you were doing a classical push up, and only went halfway instead of going full. It's what you are doing.

[chechen120]

wow thats nice i am 15 and i train every day 2.i kinda like it that there are fat ppl,they make me feel better about myself

[Lakkhamu]

If you train everyday, you lose what you have. You should rest in between workouts.

[Kingofuall123]

Not bad. your almost as good as me. try doing 1 hand planche push-ups. those are hard as hell.

[gdeep783]

@Kingofuall123 one hand planche push-ups...whats next one pinky pushups?? lmao

[GeneralAckbar]

That is amazing. Your right, Rocky does suck, you should fight him in Rocky V...they will get there some day.

[batmankeith1]

WELL DONE,GOOD WORKOUT,KEITH

[BoxingFly01]

Master, I have a video of me on my phone doing 1 almost perfect one arm push up. I have mixed feelings about putting it on youtube because all I got in me is one and people might laugh.

[OneAndOnlyOverlord]

then practice on until you have something to show of what you think people might have respect for. Then upload it and you will see if they have.

[chaniyer]

Easy. If your going for more reps, then just do excessive fist push-ups, and hand squeezes

[OneAndOnlyOverlord]

More reps of what?

[BoxingFly01]

News, Master!

I put my legs shoulder length apart and was actually able to get down to 90 degrees, but not enough strength to return. am almost at shoulder width form!

After I get the first perfect one, the rest will come easy!

My hand is not directly below thechest however, alittle above.

[OneAndOnlyOverlord]

You could also do them dirty and improve in style. One dirty pushup is better than zero stylish ones... ;-)

[BoxingFly01]

Master OverLord, I got a video of me on my phone doing 2 one arm push ups. Not sure how to get it on the computer though.

I been working at it but had a break for a while cause of some crap and I got finals coming up. I been doing 50 diamond push ups a day, every other day. Not all at once though I am not strong enough. I am having trouble progressing past 21 diamond push ups at once...

[OneAndOnlyOverlord]

Sounds good! Haven't practiced the diamond pushups excessively and just made 21, this is quite hard for the shoulders. I'd also do the normal ones cause normally you can do more of them which trains other muscles - as you said. You will need them all...

[elerfe]

that's how it's done

[BoxingFly01]

Master OverLord, I have another question. I need to optimize every two handed push up I do and I want to know which way is better. I noticed the closer bring my arms together, the better my triceps become blasted and my elbows are at my side. I noticed that the wider my arms are, my chest gets worked more and less tricep. However, when you do a one arm push up, the only way is with elbows outward.(continued in next comment)

[BoxingFly01]

So I am wondering, which type of two handed push up is the best training for one handers? Elbows outward and chest worked, or hands closer together and elbows at my sides?

I have a long way to go. I been using my phone to watch my form and I noticed Im slightly rotating my torso and using my abs to make up for lack of arm strength to get to 90 degress elbow.

Im going to keep working hard, and Im planning on posting a video within 12-13 days (next weekend) where you can cretique my form.Thanks!

[OneAndOnlyOverlord]

Hm.... the more the hands are centered, the more you can close your legs... would be cool to see a video, yeah!

[BoxingFly01]

So your saying I should do push ups with my hands as close together as possible?

PS You are good at the drums I saw a video.

[OneAndOnlyOverlord]

Oh I meant for one-armed, the arm can be centered... for two-armed they should be straight from the shoulders I'd say... thanks again!

[BoxingFly01]

So I should keep my elbows at my sides during two handed push ups, to clairfy?

So yeah, thanks again, and give me another week to train as I pretty much just started. So the plan is to show you my two weeks progress of training in a video next weekend.

Thanks agai nmaster overlord.

[OneAndOnlyOverlord]

yes, elbows at the sides, not in front of the chest!

[BoxingFly01]

Matser I have a question. I finally able to do a one arm push up but I am not sure if I am cheating myself. My legs are more then shoulder width apart. I can do about quality 25 normal push ups and I cleared two one arm push ups. I'll try and get my dads camera so you can see my progress. I posted my comment two months ago, but I just started training this month as my rotater cuff is beggining to heal from physical therapy. Thanks for helping me OverLord!

[OneAndOnlyOverlord]

Thanks for your question, it is an honor for me to answer you. I just checked mine, the feet are a little bit more apart than the shoulder width - about 15cm - that's very good already cause most people have them apart much more to compensate lacking strength in the arms. In my video the feet are much more apart cause I have to keep balance while switching from one arm to another. For "normal" one-armed push-ups they'd be spread too wide. BUT there is no rule. Start easy, increase carefully,son

[jackhole91]

ok wow now THIS is what i'm talking about.

you actually do really good one arm pushups. AND you clap too. impressive.

[sangtus19866]

respect for that, i can do one hand pu on my right, but left..:P no way.. how should you do that, just stress more weight to the left arm in regular pushups?

anywayz, nice skills, keep it up ^^

[OneAndOnlyOverlord]

Thanks dude... I never tried to put more weight to any arm in regular pushups... I'd just do more regular ones. For me 60 are fine.

[VisualCarcass]

nice shit

[BoxingFly01]

Dude I'm 15 and I really badly wanna be able to do one handed push ups. Tell me how many normal ones before I can do one handed?

What is proper form for one handed push ups?

Tell me everything master of push ups.

[OneAndOnlyOverlord]

I like being called Master so I'll give you an answer! You should be quite good at pushups before starting one-handed ones... start when you're able to do about 50 normal ones... but that's not everything cause you need muscles in your stomach, back and legs. Just try it. Each day more than the day before. No pain no gain!

The proper form: Don't spread your legs too wide - you are not a woman (most on youtube do that!) move your chest to the ground. Arm must be straight wehen up, 90° when down

[texmexspm]

im 14, i first did like 25 before i could at least do 1 1handpushup but really hurts like hell so i waited untill i could do 37 then i cud do like 4 and it didnt hurt.i also use to put my kid brother on my back n do 15. he wieghed 30 lbs. it takes hrd painful work

[EvanKOrtiz]

very impressive, ive never seen anyone else do this before.

and CHumga, you are a fag. clapping one armed pushups are much harder than normal one armed push ups, very few people can do these, and rocky isn't real. even so, rocky's push ups in the movie weren't even very good to begin with.

in the words of caveman903, go back to jerking off at rocky posters

[Caveman903]

Hey chumga... Rockys a fictional character you fuckin retard. Not to mention he did the shittiest one arm pushups ive ever seen. So shut the fuck up and go back to jerking off at rocky posters... fuckin fag

[OneAndOnlyOverlord]

Sorry I did't get you were talking to chumga... yeah he's a retard :-)

[Terr0rblade]

Very good, but plz show your Push Ups in another Cam-Position because i would like to see your back, it seems very straight. (in a good way ;-)

But...Where are your from?

[OneAndOnlyOverlord]

thanks, yes I guess it's quite straight. I am going to start training again soon cause I haven't done more than 3 of those for a long time. I hope to post a new vid in May or so, it wouldn't make sense at the moment...I'm from Germany by the way

[NagiMan]

i think u did great work.....

shame on the others^^

[jstntlvr]

great form man excellent core strength and to all the jacks that think this is easy lets see you do it as my fatherinlaw would say shit or get off the crapper

[CHumga]

Rocky probably did 100 of them!

Just because you can clap dsn't mean that it's harder then what Rocky did, infact there's probably no difference clapping just looks fancier. If you did 2 claps or clapped behind your back i would be impressed...

[OneAndOnlyOverlord]

I haven't seen anybody doing any of these... probably because they're so easy, guess you are right...

[CHumga]

Plenty of people can do these, just because noone else shows off about em and claiming they are better then Rocky does not mean that other people can't do them.

[OneAndOnlyOverlord]

I guess you never did even a normal push-up cause you seem to have no idea what you're talking about... if you don't want to let anybody know that you have no idea you shouldn't write any comments on youtube

[CHumga]

What makes you so sure i have no idea what i'm talking about?

For your information i DO know what i'm talking about. YOU should stop being so cocky.

Claiming that Rocky "sucks" proves just how cocky you are. Just cause you can do a fancy does not mean that you are better then Rocky and it certainly does not mean that you are better then everyones.

I stand by my original comment, plenty of people CAN do these.

[TiCLer]

Fake.

[OneAndOnlyOverlord]

Sure... and why?

[Battousaih]

That's pretty bad ass. I could probably do a quarter of one of those. Awesome job.

[PilatesOfZeCarribean]

I can do the going down bit. Coming up could be tricky :).

[WHATISUTUBE]

No need to insult Rocky.

[Specterus]

nice but you wanna try working on making your strength so you can throw yourself higher giving yourself more time to clap that way ppl can at least hear you connecting but pretty kewl i think im gonna have to start implying that with 2 finger 1 arm push ups :) ty for the idea ^^

[toml666]

personally id eat a cookie

[shibbypanda36]

looks fake

[OneAndOnlyOverlord]

isn't :)

[Honken]

In what way does it look fake?

[rehab71]

Idiot!

[Heftron]

I'm Impressed!

[OneAndOnlyOverlord]

Thanks man!

[slong111]

would u like a cookie or a medal now

[OneAndOnlyOverlord]

Do I look like eating cookies?

[TeflonTron]

Don't worry about the negative fools on here. I'm very, very impressed. Many congrats, and keep up the hard work.

[TBU21]

Awesome! Hopefully I can do these one day. How much do you bench?

[OneAndOnlyOverlord]

Thanks a lot. For preparation I only did standard pushups and one-armed push-ups - no benching!

[ussjkenny]

what you Rocky's balls? Sick man you're fucked up

[lightningmcnugget]

Harsh and rocky does suck (balls).

[ussjkenny]

dude how much do you weigh probably not as much as Rocky you just a skinny little wimp

[OneAndOnlyOverlord]

I'm about the same height. But yeah, it's about relation of the amount of muscles and the rest (bones, organs). Maybe Sylvester is missing some those? Or he's got a light-weight brain? By the way Rocky is only a movie character, my dear fellow. Doesn't make sense to discuss about his physical abilities, does it?

[nothingisnottaken]

You're an idiot. By your logic, women should be able to do more of these than men. Think about how stupid that sounds.

[SkatingRocksHard]

Wow ! Nice dude !

[freddienew72]

Nice work, mate. Pretty hard core!
