Like Comrade Jones said, you can get arms like his with 30 pushups a day, when I couldn’t do pushups I put some soft clothing under my knees and tried to do 5 knee-push-ups a few times in a given day. Give it time and growth will come. If you would like to go gymming ignore the mental overload that comes from watching fitness YouTubers, if you want to lose weight more calories out than in, vice versa for gaining weight, and stick to push-pull-legs for now. Try have fun with it, its all super unserious stuff just go have fun <3
PS given his frame (hes 5’3) his arms are incredibly unimpressive since shorter stature men usually can build more meat on. His physique is unimpressive because he probably is expending all of his energy being a fascistic parasite
Don’t pushups target the triceps? So you need something else for biceps. I’m gonna try and do them anyway, I already started doing planks some days ago and tested how many pushups I can do (not a lot). I guess I should start from the knees, then get a pull up bar to add some pulling to my routine
Diamond press-ups target the tricep much more than a typical pressup, a normal pressup targets the shoulders and chest, however during the tendon building stage you’ll feel your arms being incorporated a lot, that might explain why you feel pressups they work the arms. If you want to work your biceps, I truly do suggest getting dumbells, and if you dont mind saving for a litle while as you are building tendon strength, get weight dumbbell, you can change the weight (2kg-32kg, 4kg increments) by rotating the bar like a motorbike. Its super approachable
Hey, dw about spamming questions I am happy to answer them, and to answer your Q I think so yes. But don’t worry building tendons is actually really easy it just takes time, the formula is low weight and frequency. If this is your first time working out ever, expect 2-3 months from the first time you broke a sweat. Do incline pressups on some stairs for example or the knee pressups, just crank out a few every now and then each day, believe me this stage will pass by like nothing.
Be kind to yourself, you’re building your foundations, completely forget heavy weights for now because tendons do not work that way. And make sure to work out core and legs believe me they will improve your QOL
Can’t believe I’m getting mogged by ben shapiro…

Is this why I feel my biceps giving up before my core, shoulders or any other muscle? (Last question I hope, thanks for the help so far)
