How can I change my push-up routine so that my non-dominate side can receive more of the weight? Are there other forms of push-ups aside from one-armed push-ups that can isolate the weaker side?
>>
when you mean non dominant side, are you actually implying that one pec is really much larger than the other? or are you talking about your arms, because thats pretty common
>>

not him, but my left pec is a great deal larger than my right one. It's really noticable from the side. I think it is because my right tricep is a little stronger from right handed day-to-day activities.

if you have a chest imbalance, i probably wouldnt focus on 1 arm pushups as much as i would incorporate much more dumbbell pressing. get on the incline and try dumbells with different weights for each arm. doing that for a couple months would probably help a ton more than pushups aside from the fact that theyre just not very comfortable.

You can put one of your arms closer to your body and the other further away, that should cause some imbalance on the muscle workings

Would the one that is closer receive more weight?
>>
>>39351399
Arms, but I think the size difference is becoming a bit too drastic.
>>
isolate right chest and left tricep

>>39350408
Move your non dominant hand forward (in front of your shoulder). It will put more strain on the other pec
>>
Uneven pushups? Use a soccer/basketball, place the hand of the strong side on the ball during pushups. You can also extend the strong arm to the side on the ball, putting most of your weight on the weaker side you want to target. Lock out the strong arm you place on the ball to minimize it's usage and force more work on to the weak arm.

It should

>>39350408

...you can do one armed push ups, can't you anon?

get books
put dominant hand on couple of books and non dominant hand on floor.
Shift all of your weigh to the one on the floor.
