  • Man, please look properly at his back when he is performing the push-up. The back is totally arched into lordosis. IT IS NOT STRAIGHT as the coach claims! This is about the worst push-up posture I have seen. There is no activation of the abs when he pushes, which is why the arch takes place. This is a negative example of how to perform push-ups.

  • The kid is locking his elbows. Also, he's falling so fast on the eccentric motions that it is doing him little to no good. Try extending your arm until your elbows are almost locked, but not quite, also, lower yourself SLOWLY, and raise yourself back up quickly. Pausing at the top is good because emphasizes control, but if you're locking your elbows on each peak, well, not so much.

  • @Abby1211 I know what you mean...I taught a Pre-National Service enlistment program at a Polytechnic and the students were performing horrible "push-ups"...most of them had their hips going up and down in extension and flexion of the spine with hardly any chest movement.

    I don't envy your job! :)
