    Yo can elevate your legs, on a chair for example, to make pushups harder. Close handed pushups are heavier because they strain your triceps more

    But pushups do not train your biceps and back, so you should have some kind of exercise for them. Maybe a bar which you can install in your home, so that you can do chin ups. Then you at least have a covered the most basic muscle groups

    • ill try that. does spreading your legs increase strain on push-ups?
      or only elevating them?

    • I just tried pushups with spread legs. it really hurt my lower back and not in a "wow, thats working wonders" waykalkal
    • In a "thats gonna put you out of service for a while" kind of waykalkal
    • ahh thanks for the try-out demo.
      its true it is the opposite.
