Getting strong by doing push ups...

Shark Atack Asked by funadvice about 1 year ago, 6 answers.

I can barely do 3 push ups! im weak in the areas for push ups and I want to know what kinda of exercises should I do to build up to doing 10 reps and 3 sets of push ups? I have pretty strong biceps from caring 15 pounds everyday, but its my triceps and...

chest muscles getting weak. Also, what other exercises are good to gain muscle in thighs/butt? Or are there activities that are good and work all muscles?
Another question! I want to start running this spring, I ussaully just walk my dog, but I want to start jogging. How do I build myself up to that? I can run down the stop sign near my house till my heart is really pumpin which is about 89 yards. I know im not in my best shape.
Any help, thanks

squats are the only way to go for butt/thighs

and for arms, simply just do butterflies.

variation of squats, lunges, leg presses, running at an incline, olyptical machine, calf raises while squeezing buttocks, and deadlifts all work legs and buttocks.

It is good to work your entire body so you are balanced.

Try long distance, sprinting is great for the lungs and all but if you want lungs, then do suicides(sprinting back and forth 10-30yrds apart). Walk/Run for about an hour 3-5x a week and you'll build yourself up. Just keep track how far you go and try to improve a little every couple weeks.

with the push-ups you nneed to strengthen your upper arms, weight lifting can help that (start off small)
bicep curls
and tricep curls will also help you a lot for push-ups

I'm 14, and involed with a military program called cadets... I can do about 100 one handed push-ups and 47 one handed chin-ups... for the jogging just jog as long as you possibly can. dont stop because your tired though. push yourself. take a break, push yourself, take a break, so on and ect. for push ups just do as many as you can in the morning and at night. DON'T Forget to stretch before any excersice! and push yourself!
