It's just because the leg drive is a bit different on pushups, but if you do them with arched back and wide grip like Rippetoe teaches (Though he simply calls it The Push), you should be able to rep them out.

I've been doing them wrong all along.
>>
>>38004905
what is this bullshit?
holding on to dumbbells, completely straight and keeping balance is alpha pushup. only take rippletits advice if you want to look like rippletits.
>>
>>38004725
Why would you be able to do a pushup when you can only bench half your bodyweight?
>>
>>38004725
For that to be true you would have to weigh just under 340lbs or have had your core muscles amputated.

I'm the exact opposite: I can do 100 standard push ups no problem. I can even do 20 one armed push-ups before I wear down. But, I can't bench more than 170lbs.

>>38005099
Weight?

>>38005216
220lbs

Get into pushup position and slide a scale underneath your hands. That should tell you how much weight you need to bench in order to do a pushup.

Yup, I was doing them wrong the whole time. Dips and Cablecrossovers taught me that wide is the only way. I was wondering why my shoulders got worked out first because I was esentially doing closegrip even though it was shoulder length, at least my shoulders are huge as fuck and my ohp is 155 for reps.

That is horribly wrong.

You want a protracted scapula, a hollow body, and hands about shoulders with apart.

You should also always keep your elbows in because flaring them out puts unnecessary stress on your elbow joints and weakens the movement.

But to each their own.

>>38006373
You can keep your elbows out if you floor press. Is good for clavicular engagement
>>
>>38006311
Me too back when I had shitty mobility. The weight pushes you into position, which is hell on your tendons if you don't control the eccentric portion flawlessly and even then it's bad.
