Kgdavid:hi I think I m a mesomorph with a more developed lower body compared to my upper body, so I stopped doing squats and focused o pushups. Now I can comfortably do a hundred pushups at a go, but things seemed to have gotten stale. Gaining weight seems a bad idea because of the tendency to accumulate fat more in the lower body. I ve not tried weightlifting yet. Any advice for me? |

DrinkWater10: hey man, those are truly impressive results. It is normal for the body to reach a stage in growth where the same exercise will get stale. this is known as a plateau. What to do next really depends on your goal: are you interested in size, strength or shape? the generic advise i'd give you when you hit a plateau is: 1. mix up your training. instead of focusing on push ups alone, mix your routine up with other exercises such as pull ups and weight lifting. your muscles have gotten used to the dynamics of push ups, and are now able to cope with the stress. (your body thinks its helping you by doing this). simply switch to another similar exercise. if you want to keep working on your chest and triceps, i'd suggest you do triceps dips. They'll work almost the same areas as push-ups but without working the core (abdominal muscles) as much. 2. increase difficulty levels. have you tried one handed push ups? how about incline or decline push ups? a great way to improve power, stamina and strength is by doing plyometric push-ups. you perform them like normal push-ups but the difference is when you push up from the ground you lift your body in the air and clap your hands and return to the plank position. 2. do isolation training. push ups are a compound exercise that work multiple muscles and joints all at once. if you're looking for growth, i'd suggest you try isolation exercises that focus specifically on single muscle groups as these exercises are great for achieving growth in specific areas. 3. nutrition. do you know that you might be wasting hours of exercise if you are not taking in a matching amount of protein? your muscles need protein to grow, so if you like work out from morning to evening; if you don't take in enough protein, you're OYO. fortunately, protein is everywhere. from akara, moi moi, eggs, milk, to peanuts and peanut butter, cheap, high quality protein sources are available in abundance. 4. take a break. surprisingly, taking a week off training is not the muscle growth killer most people think it will be, especially when you have been training for an extended period. when you take a 7-10 days off, your body will have lost some of it's familiarity with push-ups (without losing its capacity to do push-ups) and this will create room for more growth 5. i think you should mix in some cardio. go for a run, play a sport like football or basketball, just to keep your body in all round shape. sorry bout the late reply btw. just seeing this 2 Likes |
