A member asked:
I find push ups so hard to do. does this mean i have really weak upper body strength?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
They ARE hard: You may simply weigh more than your upper body strength can handle. I'm very glad you are trying and training. A good preparation is a pushup variant with one or both knees on the floor. The hated pushup is probably the single best exercise for developing your upper body.
