How to avoid the disadvantages of push-ups? Movement is very important

I believe many male friends know that push-ups are a simple and very effective fitness exercise, and are not limited by time and location. Not only can you exercise at home, you can also do it at work. Many people say that doing push-ups will have disadvantages. Is this true?

Action is important

Many people do push-ups incorrectly, or bend their waists, or stick out their buttocks, or the range of motion is too small... Movement errors will greatly reduce the training effect, so they should be avoided as much as possible. It is especially important to keep the elbows outward when lowering the body, rather than letting the elbows point to the back of the body, otherwise the muscles in the front of the shoulder will bear too much weight, and the focus of the exercise will not be the chest muscles. Since push-ups use the body's own weight as resistance, as a strength training, the intensity is not enough, so it is recommended that fitness enthusiasts who "train blocks" choose training movements with heavier loads such as barbell push-ups and parallel bar dips, and use push-ups as warm-ups before training.

As long as the movements are correct, there is no harm, only benefits. In addition, when doing push-up exercises, you need to pay attention to the following matters:

1. Exercise gradually, from easy to difficult, from little to more, and from light to heavy.

2. Choose appropriate training methods according to your physical condition and control the exercise load.

3. Do warm-up and cool-down activities to prevent injuries and muscle stiffness.

4. The elderly are prohibited from using finger-style, clapping, and weight-bearing exercises. Patients with heart disease or high blood pressure are prohibited from using this method.

5. Push-ups are gravity training. Long-term push-ups can easily cause greater pressure and impact on the knuckles (fist style), wrist joints (palm style) and shoulder joints, causing pain and damage to the above parts, so these joints need to be taken care of more often.
