Push ups? What's the difference?

Question

What is the difference between normal push ups and Decline Push-Ups ?

ok that first answer is just stupid. As far as the postioning goes, I got that but does it work your arms better or your chest etc...

Answer 1

Like the decline bench press, decline push-ups emphasize your lower chest. Inclines emphasize your upper chest, and regulars work your overall chest. Close-grips focus on triceps if you focus on sliding your upper arms alond your body during the exercise. Regular and wide-arm work your chest at different angles to recruit more muscle fibers.

Answer 2

It's much better to do knee push-ups if you can keep proper form and go low, it's more effective than only bending you're arms a little on pushups from feet. But if you're arm strength isn't the issue and you're having a hard time keeping yourself in line, then you should try doing some planks untill you can hold the feet pushups.

Answer 3

u make decline push ups with your legs higher on a bench. so u re in a declined position

Answer 4

normal strikes the chest and triceps muscles while decline strengthen the back and legs muscles

Answer 5

decline puts more weight onto your arms making them all around more efficient.
