Push-ups are not only about the number of times you do it, but more importantly, the quality of the movements, the reasonable way of exercise, and regular muscle and joint care.
Each technical push-up is more valuable than trying to increase the quantity, especially when age causes connective tissue to need to be protected more carefully.
After the age of 50, building push-ups requires patience, exercise properly and maintaining the right intensity to achieve long-term results.
Warm up the shoulders
Start your shoulders thoroughly with resistance band stretching, shoulder push-ups and arm rotation exercises before each weightlifting session.
Tighten your abs
Focus on tightening your abs each time you do push-ups to protect your shoulders.
Reasonable exercise
Do push-ups 2-3 times a week to increase strength without putting too much pressure on the joints. In addition, change to different weekly exercises to avoid overusing and stimulate new strength.
Combine push-ups with pull-ups such as rowing or pulling resistance bands to maintain balance and shoulder posture.
Implemented under control
Prioritize slow-paced movements to support health and improve muscle coordination.
