Essentially, we have 3 tiers of pushup ability listed. Your training method depends on which tier you're in (I completely made up these tiers to simplify and these numbers aren't set in stone whatsoever): 0-5 Push-ups: work on easier variations to build up a stronger foundation for Full Push-ups! (while THEORETICALLY some would start doing Full Push-ups as soon as they can do one, it's rarely the best idea. For one thing, your joints may not have adapted to full push-ups even if your muscles have.) 5-15 Push-ups: Work on Full Push-ups and focus on good, clean form! Do these for 2-3 sets to near failure 1-2x a week. Same for the previous tier. 15+ Push-ups: at this point, you tend to heal faster from your pushup days and you can start doing them more often! Every other day is fine. Eventually you can do them 6-7 days a week! Feel free to rest for several minutes between sets, especially if your goal is to maximize reps within a single set. Remember to breathe while doing these push-ups! It makes a big difference - especially as you get into higher numbers. There are other aspects that can help. Let me know if you'd like a follow-up! Have a wonderful day.
I really want to be able to do handstand pushups and just start getting into calisthenics more in general, but I just can't and my core is weak. Can you help please???
That's so true 😭 My school PE teacher always offended us, when we didn't do things perfectly even for the first time. With some tests (for example, running 2 km in time) I just said "no, mark F, I'm not even trying" because she would mark F either way. No wonder, I'm such a jelly now
swear bro like why are you screaming at us to do full pushups not 'girl pushups' (even to the girls) when we were 7 years old, and from what ive heard this wasnt even an uncommon experience
Thank you! I'm physically disabled and used to be super fit. I have such horrible days because my body hates me but this short made me feel better . I can start off slow and keep trying. I'm used to being a beast but it's ok I'm like this now and as long as I keep trying, I'm good.
I was fit too, but now i live away from home due to studies and i feel weak, cannot maintain my diet and exercise along with studies, but i still try to do what i can,, cant say that i do not slack off,,, but anyways hope u do good😁
I believe in you brother 🤝you got this! Just remember that the only thing that matters is showing up every single day when you don't want to and keep pushing when your body screams 'STOP'. Stay hard✊🏻
Sets during commercial breaks is so under rated. Don't stress yourself out always worrying about the workout. Watch your show. When it stops, push. Ive improved so much since discovering your channel. Thanks for all you do brother!
This technique also works with a set of dumbbells and doing slow curls. What's even better is not counting and just paying more attention to the commercial/ad/etc. so you're not focusing on reps. Easy distraction to working out!
@@mrlemonlame I've found even better than that is just buying whatever product is in the ad ahead of time so you don't even have to pay attention to the ad anymore

This actually helped me a LOT, probably like half a year ago, I could do like maybe 5 pushups, 3 of them were clean. A big problem I had was breathing, and the unusual feeling of bloodpressure building up in my head. So I practiced inclined pushups and got to like 15 pushups on like 30cm incline in 2 weeks, and then I baught a pushup grip plank which helped me to keep my form, aswell as being a small incline. Now I can do 5 sets of 20 pushups on a normal surface.
I think someone with more focus on mobility and natural heath is more attractive than someone who can lift more. Such a genuine and helpful video, thank you!
I love how positive this channel is. It always brightens my day even though I don’t do much working out. It’s such a welcoming and accepting vibe, even these short little clips make me happier with their wholesome energy. Thank you for making content
I haven't worked out for nearly a month now and hate myself that I've become weaker than before but after this video I feel like I can do it again Thank you Hampton
you. are so motivating and helpful and i literally just found you today. i previously had no interest in exercising (outside of like...walks and casual activity) but now im. considering it i think. which isn't much but it's better
I really like the 'strength -> endurance -> advance progression' mindset. Do an exercise till you get strong at it, then get really good at it, then do something harder. Getting everything you can out of exercises and not getting bogged down in variations.
I remember watching you for the very first time where I can't even do 1 push up, I'm so glad I discovered your video, because of it I can do 25 push up, thank you so much!!!!
is there a difference between a push up with your hands on the ground and a push up when grabbing 2 handles? (the handles are basically ground level because im using a pull up tower)
Just slightly different emphasis on the muscles being used! That applies just to about any tweak in technique - even leaning further forward. Also the pushup handles might add slightly more depth. If they're angled so the handles are parallel with your body, then it might add more shoulder and arm emphasis and less chest emphasis, for example. Just based on how your elbows might want to go while holding handles like that.
Dude ain’t lying. When I was in high school, I couldn’t do more than five real push ups and was embarrassed at my rotc PT test. I worked all semester on it and got up to 60 clean push ups all by doing what he’s saying. Same thing with pull ups. I couldn’t do one and got up to 15 by the end of the semester.
I do about 15-20 when I start my workout I'm a month and half into my fitness journey I started with knee push ups, now can do 15-20clean its a struggle. But I'mma try this thanks
I workout outside in my sun room and recently the heat out there has felt like a hundred degrees. It's killer and has slowed me down quite a lot. Can't wait to redo the room fully 😮💨
I have been stuck on 40 reps of fingertip pushups with strict form. Tried taking a week off, and adding a rest day between pushups with no gains. I'm now switching it up and doing harder versions of different pushups like declined(feet on bench) wide and diamond pushups. Hoping the increased intensity but lower reps will get me out of this plateau.
I'm still on wall pushups. I started 5 weeks ago and was able to do about 25 without stopping. Now I can do 50. Gonna start transitioning to the floor soon or a counter top.
I did a Army Ranger push up challenge where you do push-ups for 15 seconds and then go right into plank and continue this rotation for 3 minutes or 5 minutes. I cramped so much that I couldn’t move my arms for a good minute. I like these type of movements if you’re trying to go over 30 push ups in a row
Don't put too much mental weight on it. Find solace in the post-workout pain and learn to associate that with progress and you're in the gold. You got this, friend!

Do you do weighted Calisthenics?

I said it before and I’ll say it again, Hampton is the one cousin we actually enjoy seeing
100%
FOR REAL
But I enjoy seeing all my cousins
@@unknown69801same fr
I love all my cousins
If Hampton was my PE teacher, I'll probably get an A+ Streak
That's so true 😭 My school PE teacher always offended us, when we didn't do things perfectly even for the first time. With some tests (for example, running 2 km in time) I just said "no, mark F, I'm not even trying" because she would mark F either way. No wonder, I'm such a jelly now

It's hard but I keep trying. I can't always do but I always try. Xoox
That's the spirit 🙏🙏🙏
Bro is the most wholesome dude in this world
I absolutely love this guy. He just seems like the nicest dude in the world.
I love how this guy doesn't care what your abilities are, he just shows you want you CAN do
Your so inspiring!! Love your positive motivational energy, my 2023 goal is to be able to do 50 push ups, your vids have really helped 🫶🫶
That's awesome! Cheering for you to reach your goal! Keep us updated :)
Yes your goal is possible.
Look up Iron wolf, by 2024 you will be knocking 1000+ push ups easily
So 2023 is about to end...can you do 500 now?
how did it go?
Sets during commercial breaks is so under rated. Don't stress yourself out always worrying about the workout. Watch your show. When it stops, push.

Hampton you are a very nice guy, I wish I was more like you sometimes
Between this guy and Flexy Felix I’ve never been in better shape before

your content is so wholesome and makes me actually feel like i can get better rather than seem like i'll never be anywhere close
Of all the people on YOutube I'd choose t meet you. Youre so positive and special it makes me so curios
Im tellin you this man is who i look up to and i love him
Brother Hampton! Thanks as always for giving actionable progressions for people who actually starts from zero.
I haven't worked out for nearly a month now and hate myself that I've become weaker than before but after this video I feel like I can do it again
Thank you Hampton
I'm so glad I saw this, because this is pretty much what I've been doing, but I had no idea if that was a good idea
Youre a whole motivational vibe. You remind me that it doesnt have to be difficult!
Thank you for this straight forward channel that's very positive and a great reminder. Good attitude!
Very good advice, this is something I wish I learned before, definitely would've helped me get where I'm at faster haha. Great stuff as always Hampton
Damn you for encouraging me to better myself!!! 🥺
I read that as "slowly twerk" and I was like aight bet whatever helps me train.
you. are so motivating and helpful and i literally just found you today. i previously had no interest in exercising (outside of like...walks and casual activity) but now im. considering it i think. which isn't much but it's better
idk how much chronic pain will allow me to do but i can probably do. something. maybe. to some degree
Thanks for these incredible tips Brother!! You bring a smile to many faces! God Bless!
doing sets during commercial breaks is a good idea, I'll try that out! xD
whenever i have a bad day i just watch all of Hamptons shorts :)
thank you for your help i also do mine during commercial breaks
Who else watched it a second time so they could pause on the dog at the end? I barely saw it on the first pass.
Sorry she didn't show up until the end!

Thank you so much for your videos.
right on time when i needed this specific thing you save me, thanks man.
I honestly love this guy ❤❤❤
This man is just keeping making my day even better. Thanks man 😁
Started with wall pushups, then incline, then knee pushups, now working on full pushups ayyy
This is GOLD! My attention span thanks you.
I always appreciate your videos because you always give good tips and your videos are calming and peaceful!🙏🏽
ure absolutely awesome hampton tysm!

love your vids! hope youre doing well
One day, I'll be able to flip the remote like Hampton does.
Thanks bro make my exercise effective have a great day bro
You got such good advice
I do about 15-20 when I start my workout I'm a month and half into my fitness journey I started with knee push ups, now can do 15-20clean its a struggle. But I'mma try this thanks
I am following this in recovery from my mastectomy!
I workout outside in my sun room and recently the heat out there has felt like a hundred degrees. It's killer and has slowed me down quite a lot. Can't wait to redo the room fully 😮💨
I was expecting him to spring into a full-on Sportacus one-arm/one-leg explosive pushup routine.
I didn't realise until watching this video...but he didn't "If you ONLY do 0-5" - it was just "If you can do"... That makes such a huge difference
Loving content like this and hope you keep it up!
This guy gon get me to exercise
bro is so majestic
I have been stuck on 40 reps of fingertip pushups with strict form.
Tried taking a week off, and adding a rest day between pushups with no gains.
I'm now switching it up and doing harder versions of different pushups like declined(feet on bench) wide and diamond pushups. Hoping the increased intensity but lower reps will get me out of this plateau.
woah ... actual good non generic advice. i hope the people subscribe to you
Joke on us. Now there's no pause in commercial breaks.
Thanks, Hampton 🙂
Aha! Going to failure and then transitioning to the knees is a great idea
I used to try to junk higher during commercial breaks for Haikyu lmao
I'm still on wall pushups. I started 5 weeks ago and was able to do about 25 without stopping. Now I can do 50. Gonna start transitioning to the floor soon or a counter top.
I haven’t gone for a body weight max in a while, but I recently did 10 reps with 100lbs on my back
So wise at so young
I did a Army Ranger push up challenge where you do push-ups for 15 seconds and then go right into plank and continue this rotation for 3 minutes or 5 minutes.

Thank u for dropping the flip flops.
That's a fresh deck right there. I can smell the lumber.
Are you proud of me I have been taking your advice and in 2 months I can do 25 push ups max at the age of 12 thanks for the tips man
That's the spirit 🙏🙏🙏🙏
bro can pull any guy.
"I used to do my sets in commercial breaks."
- 💪😎🗿
I hurt my wrist and can't do push-ups or pull ups right now. :( I can't wait for it to heal.
Thank you for helpful tips im only 12 and ive been trying to lise belly fat and build mucle
I used to be able to do 6 good form push-ups now if I push myself to my absolute limit I can do 60!
Oh! sweet puppy 😍
This guy has great hair.
I'm on stage 2 currently.
I love you Hampton, but I ain't doing pushups for 6-8 weeks 😅
Best believe I'm gonna grind a bit once im better tho.
Bout to get some reps in
I love your tips, but I'd rather die than have to watch myself excercise on video hahahaha
My problem is that I stop when it gets uncomfortable.
I do them while waiting to be matched into a game of Overwatch 😅
Thank you bud
Do you have any videos on wrist strength? My wrists are stiff and doing pushups is nearly impossible!
My pushup PR used to be 32 until I joined ROTC and after my first year my PR is 62 in 1 minute
Any chance we can get this with pullups? :D I also have trouble with finding progress methods (that work for me) for body weight squats :(
The fact that he can do everything in sandals or flip flops ✋🏼💀🤣
Oh my god I'm having a heart attack
Commercial breaks in the Philippines are 5 minutes each 😅
My first step is not to get bored and stop doing them. Then follow *hybrid’s* methods!
Don't put too much mental weight on it. Find solace in the post-workout pain and learn to associate that with progress and you're in the gold.
You got this, friend!
how can you do a cartwheel in easy way?? I love your advice btw ❤
Sir upload video about how to cure knock knee please
I used to do sets during commercial breaks. And then I stopped. Loss of motivation probably.
