Upper body strength plays an important role in preventing falls. The wall pushup can increase upper body strength so that you can "catch" yourself in the case of a fall. The wall push up is also a very functional exercise because we push things all day long: pushing (and pulling) open doors, pushing a shopping cart, and more.
When people do not use proper pushing technique this can lead to neck, shoulder and back pain. If you do not use proper technique, you can tighten certain muscles, leading to posture problems.
In this video, I address these and show how to start easy with the push up and gradually progress to more demanding versions of the wall push up. Enjoy.

Hello. I use winter gloves to keep my hands from hurting sometimes. They cushion my hands nicely. Thank you for your video.
Actually, we can use the kitchen counter top to do this pushup, while waiting for coffee brewing. I do that almost every morning.
Best description of a wall push up I've seen. You do great work. Much appreciated and subscribed.
Super explanation of wall pushups for senior citizens very well explained hand placements and its effect on the various muscles , thanks a lot..
Thank you . Great video for those of us who are older and beginners . This has to be one of the best detailed explanations .
You're very welcome!
This is one of the best videos, explaining it totally!! Thank you so very much. I havent been following you very long, but I totally enjoy them all!! I do the calves one often. What I was wondering, is do you have videos for every day, for working different muscles each day? I don’t know really which ones to put together. Also, your videos are very clear!
Thank you so much. Exactly what I was looking for! A detailed explanation of what to be aware of doing push ups on the wall! I would have been very happy if some stretching after the exercise would also have been included :)
Thanks for sharing these moves!
Thank you very informative and your voice is super relaxing followed 😌
This video was the detailed explanation I needed. Thank you
Thanks for the explanation. Now we have to get out of inertia and do them...I'm going to see how many I can do and if I manage to do them every day. Not easy. Greetings from Buenos Aires (it is raining and the days are getting shorter).-
I bought your book, but your videos are easier to follow. Thank you!
Thanks for your gentle approach to us rehabbers, the wall push-ups are just what my rotator needs, although my physical therapist had me using the kitchen counter, i prefer the wall, followed with a bit of plank positioning
You are welcome
These exercises look excellent, and just what l need! I’ll be starting them tomorrow morning. Thank you, Margaret!
You are welcome
The standing push up is easier than on the floor . I will try this exercise . Thank you ❤
Thank you Margaret. I have learned so much how to properly exercise from your videos. Very much appreciated.🥰
Happy to help!
Excellent 👍👍👍
This is so underrated video ....excellent explanation 🙌🙌
Glad it was helpful!
Thank U Mam.
Very helpful. Thank you
You're welcome!
Really well explained. Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you!
Hi there
Thank you 💕🌍🙏
You are so welcome
Good coach.
I appreciate that!
Hello Margaret. Are these wall pushups good for building bone in the upper back (is it the thorax muscles?) which is where a lot of vertebrae fractures occur? Thank you.
Thanks, Margaret. How many push ups should I do every day?
Thanks!
Hi there
The counting and hearing 98 threw me off. 30+ years ago I did 108 pushups in two minutes for the reserves. It was the record for a year and I was actually proud of it. Unfortunately a dude did 114 the next year and I was out by then. He was actually gunning for my record but dude was in good shape.
As always ,very nice explained from any point of view of the exercise . I don't have yet your book . Are you explaining so carefully all exercises in the book as well ? Thank you.
Thank you for your comments. Yes, my book, Exercise for Better Bones, has very thorough explanations of the key concepts and the exercises. There are extensive [FREE] resources on my website to support you on your journey to stronger bones.
My Personal Trainer asigned me some exercices (crunches) that I found out you dò not reccomend. I have a dexa T scor of -2.7 for L1 and L3. I m confident to start your beginer level exercises playlist. So, please, how many exercises shoud I do daily, after warming up? 10 to 12 reps and 2 to 3 sets each exercise. Thank you very much!
Margaret, can you recommend any form modifications for someone who has a shoulder issue? I really enjoy doing wall pushups but I have a shoulder that complains mildly when I do normal daily functions.
Thanks for this! I can’t do a regular push up to save my life. I do these instead. Great tips!
Glad you like them!
Discovered last week that I have osteopenia and very close to osteoporosis. I love my Bootcamp classes, but have learned from your website that some of the exercises are dangerous for me. I would love a “This, Not That” substitute list. For example, what exercises could I substitute for crunches, v-ups, bicycles 🤷🏼♀️ Can I still do burpees? Thanks so much for your informative website and CZcams channel, I’m relieved to have a source on how to combat this diagnosis.
Hi Leah. If your bootcamp includes exercises and movements that potentially compromise you, then one option is to drop the bootcamp. I cannot go through every item in your bootcamp. Instead I encourage individuals such as yourself to follow a safe exercise program FOR THEIR LEVEL.
You can either follow my Exercise for Better Bones program or one of my video workouts. Here are the appropriate resources:

You can also try this workout I posted on CZcams:

Here is a video I posted with general guidelines on how to modify your aerobics exercise class:

@@margaretmartinpt Thank you for the response. My bootcamp group is also a way to see my close friends so I may have to do a lot of modifications. I was hoping the “This, not That” substitution list could be a blog or video at some point in the future for some of the common exercises encountered at the gym. Sorry if my post seemed as if I wanted you to give me personal modifications. I’ve purchased both of your books so I’ll research from your written instruction. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge on bone health.
@@leahlynch4700 My book has a chapter dedicated to exercises to avoid. I suggest you start there and look at the video on aerobic exercise I included in my initial response to you.
Is this alright to do if you have varicose veins in the lower legs?
This was helpful! I’m not strong enough for floor pushups, and have been doing these slightly incorrectly. Thanks for the demo.
I have osteoarthritis and osteoporosis in my spine. I’ve heard no flexion for OP and no extension for OA. So what can I do to strengthen my back? Is this explained in one of your books?
I have a whole section of the book dedicated to strengthening back muscles, specifically as it relates to posture. melioguide.com/products/exercise-for-better-bones-program/
@@margaretmartinpt thanks Margaret. This combination of oa and op confuses me. Ill read that section again!
@@sharonmitchel1377 Excellent!
I have the strength to do a 'regular' pushup but my elbows are absolutely F$%KED and can't handle it. The wall pushup movement helps to move my elbows an put a little strain but not to much, just to get them moving.
is your breathing pattern good? Inhaling and exhaling ?
Very nice,, first view n first comment
Thanks a lot
👍
Goes on a lot
🙏🙏👍👍🙏🙏
Thank you
How many should beginners do a day ?
