I just tried it and I have to say that you really feel the shock in the pecs when your hands hit the ground and ball at the same time. Great workout dude!

@Anomiman
The way I would do this would be one or two weeks of the month, on the days you train chest, and do it in a super set. So, dumbbell press, no rest, dumbbell flys, again with no rest, do this exercise. Rest 1-2 min and repeat x3.

I really like your workouts but I would appreciate if you could tell more specific which musclegroup this exercise trains e.g. Why did you take the medicine ball for example? ;D

lol, he huffs and puffs doing them. i did 20 today as a warm-up to my chest training. Guess the Anavar isnt exactly cutting the lactic acid for him.

My left chest is quite bigger than right. Which side should I put this ball to make balance? Should I lose left chest or build right?

Reply
Christopher May 26, 2013 - 2:48 pm

you should train both and they will eventually equal out

Dylano33 August 26, 2013 - 9:03 pm

the opposite peck will be working. the ball is to stabilize your left/right hand and your going down and pushing with the opposite peck muscle. late response but that's your answer!

Will this help me make a proper push-up?
And how many should I do as a beginner?

Please explain the advantages of this over regular push ups.

Does anyone know how many reps

Reply

U did not explain anything.
"up, down, up down" is not an explanation of how to do an exercise.
