Push Ups

Best exercice ever, I remember having no pecs and shit shoulders and looking like shit in a t-shirt. During my judo class, if you were late once, it was 50 push ups, and everytime you were late again, you add 50. I was at 350 with my buddy and then the teacher would always reset it after 2 weeks. (We would get late on purpose so we didn't have to do the gay ass stretching with a partner thing) Anyway, fast forward 2-3months and my pecs got really big. Seriously, try doing as much as you can before sleeping and increase it during the other days ( I was skinny but very athletic fag so it was easy to do many)

Adding on to this, try variations. Diamond pushups are GOAT.

>>39081814
don't flared elbows just target chest more?

>>39080955
>something you have to do a thousand of
>best

elbows out or tucked in.

forgot what that one asian guy on youtube said

>>39084021
Thats how you fuck your shoulders

>>39084111
depends on what part you wanna target
flared elbows = chest
tucked in = triceps

What's better for chest, /fit/? Pushups or dips?

>>39085570

I do weighted dips with aprox 50kg 4x5 and then weighted push ups with 40kg 4x8

they use different muscles so i don't get fatigued at all with that volume

make sure your weighted dips are not the chest version (the leaning one) so you can do both in the same workout

>>39085570
fug, nice question.
I would go for dips.
easier to overload and to keep the tension

>Never heard that. In order to get flared elbows you would hypothetically have to keep your elbows at (just below) shoulder level?
>I was taught to put your hand closer to the height of your rib cage and very wide. but then again my chest is only bro tier.

Good for skellies and fatasses (read: dyels). Pretty much pointless otherwise
