Can push-ups train your abdominal muscles?

Push-ups are actually a relatively difficult exercise for men, because it requires a lot of strength and there are many factors to consider. So if you want to check whether a man has strength, you can tell by watching him do push-ups. Not only that! Push-ups are also an exercise that is not picky about the venue. As long as you are given an open space, you can start doing them, so the training is very simple. But where should you do push-ups? What is its main function? Let’s discuss it together.

Abdominal push-ups mainly train the pectoralis major, triceps, anterior and middle bundles of deltoids, and trapezius muscles. They have a certain effect on the abdominal muscles, because the abdominal muscles also need to be under pressure when doing abdominal push-ups, but the effect is very small. If you want to train your abdominal muscles, it is recommended to do sit-ups. Doing pull-ups on a single bar is the best way to train your latissimus dorsi, and you can also train your biceps, anterior and lateral deltoids, and trapezius. You can also use a barbell or large dumbbells to do bench press to train the latissimus dorsi, pectoralis major, triceps and anterior deltoids. Also, you need to combine it with some aerobic exercises: such as running, high jumping, swimming, etc., and make you sweat. This is a scientific way to exercise, which can reduce fat and build muscle at the same time.

Do push-ups (raise your feet so that your body is at 45 degrees, and do it slowly and in place) or face forward, support your hands behind your back on a chair or sofa, and do arm curls with your feet flat on the chair; do bench presses with dumbbells (make sure they are heavy, or use a barbell) to effectively train the pectoralis major. Doing sit-ups is a simple and effective way to train your abdominal muscles. You can also lie flat on the bed and touch your toes with both hands (lift your body). Be sure to do it slowly. If you do it too fast, there will be inertia, which will affect the effect. You must do it to the end and do it well.

Doing push-ups requires a person's strength, so generally people should not do too many push-ups, because it is more harmful to a person's muscles, so you can do it every other day, so that you can reduce the burden on the muscles. Exercise cannot be rushed, it is mainly a gradual process. If you exercise excessively, it is very likely to hurt your body.
