7 days, 20 push-ups?
well, if you have never practised in your life than you are in a deep #%$#&#.. plan and program which i m using(only when i don`t practice more than a few weeks) is 4 times a week, an hour work out.. if you really want to reach the magical 20, you ll have to make yourself forget about the pain and keep on.. try doing at least 10 push-ups first day, and repeating that in 2 series.. so you ll make 20 pushups in one day.. timeout between series should be 2 minutes.. so you make 10 pushups, take a 2 minutes break, and force yourself up to the 10 pshups again.. it`s gonna be painful, but it depends on you how important is for you to pass that exam.. day by day, keep adding 2 extra pushups.. i cant guarantee you success since you never practised in your life, but it`s worth of trying.. cheers
Yeah just practice each day in sets like the guy above said and try to increase the number of reps each day, I personally do 30 push-ups during my work out; 10 normal push ups, 10 wide arm push ups and 10 diamond hand push ups. Also believing you can do it mentally can go a long way.
Good luck with the exam Sallu.
Well, how many can you do now? That's probably a good indicator of how much work you need to put into it. If you can already do at least 10, you may be able to work up to 20 (it will most likely be hard, but possible). If you have trouble with 10, well, I wish you the best of luck.
You could do sets of them, with a set amount of push-ups. Or, if you really want to improve, you do as many as you can each time. Whenever you have time during the day(If you don't, then before you goto bed and/or wakup, its up to you), do as many press-ups as you can, push yourself to your absolute limit. Twenty will be simple in no time.
Unless your body works miracles, you're pretty screwed.
Follow the advice of increasing a rep occasionally, and of course push your limits. The problem with that approach is that you achieve muscle failure, which is good in increasing the amount of reps you will be able to do, but also leave you very sore the next day. And muscle failure doesn't mean when you decide to give up. Muscle failure is when you PHYSICALLY cannot get up.  Good luck.
if you cant do 20 pushups without any prior excercise. you are in terrible shape. my fat brother weighs like 140 at 5"2 he can do 20 pushups.
in my gym class i did 42 pushups in a min, and im not in great shape. sry to pick but, just 20 pushups isnt alot.
No offense Typomage, but you're just plain wrong. People can be in great shape and not be able to do 20 push-ups. I've known a few long-distance runners that placed at state (high-school) competitions and had trouble with 20 push-ups. It's a matter of what you're body has been trained to do, on purpose or not. Some people are just naturally more suited to different tasks, for various reasons.
Just go Practice and Practice, Train and Train... You know what, practices and training makes perfect... And you'll develop it as if you are just playing...
QUOTE The problem with that approach is that you achieve muscle failure, which is good in increasing the amount of reps you will be able to do, but also leave you very sore the next day. From experience, thats right. And that is what I meant. But, it's only a bit of muscle pain, nothing you'll die from. I figure this will bring maximum improvement. Besides, if you do not feel muscle pain you are not really improving that much. It's to have it because you know you are improving. Latest Entries
Pushups
Push-ups Replying to Trap FeedBacker I would do a failure set of normal pushups (no handle), fail set normal (handle) then drop to girl mode (knees,not flat but stomach and back angled up) and fail that out every other day in addition to ab work,cardio,whatever weight regiment you are on. Be sure to either eat dead animal or a protein shake within 30 minutes. Buying boiled frozen shrimp is a quick (run warm water!) and tasty way to get some meat. -reply by KOpl
