Hi,
I’m working on developing a good formed one arm pushup, and I’m hitting a plateau and wanted to know whether my exercises are of the correct difficulty.
I’m trying to follow a “grease the groove” program, by doing the following:
4 reps of one-armed pushups from the knees. 5-6 sets spread throughout the day.
I have tried a full one-armed pushup from my feet, but cannot quite complete a full controlled negative. At about five inches from the ground I crumble.
So the question is:
Will continuing to add reps and sets to my one-armed pushups from knees eventually give me the strength to jump to one-armed pushups from feet?
Or should I try my hardest to just do these partial one-armed pushup negatives from feet, hoping eventually I’ll get the strength to complete a full rep?
Thanks for your advice
