Many people always regard a muscular man who must lift iron in the gym as fitness, but besides the equipment in the gym, it is also fitness without relying on equipment and self-weight. There are not a few people who like to exercise with their bare hands. After all, by contrast, freehand exercise is more convenient and can be practiced anytime and anywhere, which is suitable for many people who have no time or don't like going to the gym. Some simple training movements, such as push-ups, can be done several times anywhere.

It is estimated that many domestic bodybuilders, including many fitness bosses, have never formally understood whether fitness is suitable or not, and push-ups are considered as entry-level movements. This "gentleman" was also a loyal fan of push-ups. At that time, he had no conditions and didn't know how to exercise. He knows that doing more push-ups every day will make his chest muscles bigger and make him look better in clothes. It is because of his previous experience in doing push-ups that he slowly goes to the gym to exercise, so he does 650 push-ups every day.

More comprehensive development of muscles

Just doing push-ups all the time can only reach some muscle tissues, not the whole body muscles, and only stimulate the chest muscles and triceps brachii. Although the effect will not be bad, the biggest drawback of unarmed fitness is often that the intensity is not strong enough, and eventually the stimulation to muscles will gradually decrease. Therefore, when people who have been doing push-ups start gym training, the first thing to break through is the chest muscles. Because of the lack of self-respect, there will be more bottlenecks that are difficult to break through.

Muscles look better.

If you only practice push-ups, although you can make your chest muscles bigger, it is really difficult to practice the shape of your chest muscles. The pectoral muscles are divided into upper, middle and lower layers. If only one layer is thick and the other two layers can't keep up, it looks strange. Many people do push-ups for a long time, and the shape of chest muscles has been bad. Even if they changed the equipment later, it was difficult to adjust it.

Physical fitness improvement

We can't deny the value of push-ups just because they are single, but if we only do push-ups, the improvement of physical fitness is very limited. Even if there are 100 push-ups every day, even if there are 200 push-ups to a certain extent, the muscle improvement is not great, and it is difficult to break through the bottleneck. However, the training in the gym is more systematic, so let's just talk about leg exercises and unarmed fitness. It is difficult to train leg muscles as strong as those in the gym. In the final analysis, it is because push-ups are still too limited, the intensity is not high, and it is not enough to make quantitative and qualitative changes, and the improvement of physical fitness is very limited.
