Rushing your push-ups is actually costing you reps with more work, which is inefficient..
If you drop fast on the way down, you’re missing the whole part of the movement, which is building tension under time.
The fix: slow the eccentric down and always control it. Use the 3 second cadence as a technique to build strength along the way.
When you do as many reps as you can with controlled tempo, you build efficiently.
I challenge you to try the 3-seconds negative and see how many clean reps you can get.
Save this for your chest routine
