Nick, very nice video. I agree on your philosophy behind the one arm push up; it's a phenomenal exercise. In my mind, it's in leagues with the handstand push up. I implore you go to BeastSkills . com, there you will find many tutorials for various (extremely) intense bodyweight exercises. In the one arm push up tutorial, he details an advanced variation where you keep your feet together. I think you should consider this variation, as you can do many reps of the "regular" one arm push up. Cheers!

I loved the video. However please check out Micky Gooch,he is the ONLY person in the World doing a One arm push up on ONE finger on a 6in nail head !
Over the year's Micky has raised thousands of pounds for charity.
Go Team Gooch !

Good luck on your heart surgery. Remember: don't touch the sides.

BTW what's up with Pavel and Nick saying use lats to do presses? It's so confusing because with pull ups I think of them as extensors, not flexors.
All I can figure is it helps you in the hole, because then your elbow is behind you, so I think the lat becomes a flexor perhaps when the shoulder is hyperextended. Much like how the lower pec can become an extensor when the arms is fully flexed (scaps rotated up).

Nick Tumminello: "Matt Hughes, I am not impressed with your performance of the one-arm push ups."

@mrkitanai1 True, especially with full extension. A tall gymnast who knows how to tuck well would probably do okay though.

This is another level of helpfulness! I've got a oap on my channel, and I flared my elbow out; I knew something wasn't right but I couldn't quite figure it out until now. I'm definitely going to try this method :) Thanks fella!
Thanks man! The video is very informative & it helped! :)
