Answer 3

k well push ups work out your triceps and ur pecs(chest)... pullups work with the same muscels.. if u can do pullups.. it will help you become able to do push ups.. and you also need other excersizes too b/c footballs a tough sport

Answer 4

You need to start actually doing push ups.  If you can only do one then do one and then rest and do another one.  Try to lift some weights too.  In no time you'll be able to do push ups

Answer 5

im 13 and i can do 40 just lift some weights and you will find it easier in about 6 weeks  

Answer 6

Do pushups at home! haha just practice at home! and you can do more at school! I would also get a job that requires heavy lifting by hand to get more muscle and strength.  

Answer 7

start out small, try do 20 if you can, then increase that number by 10 more each week it takes time, but I went from 10 to 100 , it worked for me make sure you eat a lot of protein to.
