Incline pushups are a great way to start a pushup

Incline pushups are a great way to start a pushup routine if you have trouble doing the basic pushup. The exercise still targets the main muscles and significantly reduces the amount of body weight you are lifting. Incline pushups can be done just about anywhere. All you need is a stable surface such as a table, desk, or wall. This is perfect for beginners, for anyone doing upper body and shoulder rehab, or even seniors who need to build upper body strength to improve their quality of life and independence. It can be used as part of a bodyweight exercise routine. Even if you are able to do floor pushups, incline pushups are a nice pre-exercise warmup routine.

From our experiences Incline Push Ups have more carry overs the regular push ups than knee push ups. Since you can lower the surface you are doing push ups by time (suggest you to get to 10-15 reps before lower the surface), that way you can see your progress more clear compare to doing bunch of knee push ups and hoping you would do regular push ups one day.
Push Ups are also great core exercise because they are especially moving planks. But that is also what makes them challenging, you have to learn to engage your core to keep your body nice straight line while you are doing push ups.
That’s why Knee Push Ups May not way to go if you wanna improve your basic push Up form. Knee Push Ups won’t force you to engage your core in the same as way you will need to do for full push ups.

I got this standard got from Jim Wendler @jimwendler ; in order to earn the right to put a barbell on your back, you have to do 16(women)/24(men) kg kettlebell squat for 50 straight reps.
Couple of reasons for that; (from Jim) this shows clients that they could actually do something that they thought wouldn’t be possible.
Second reason; learn how to work hard and there has to be a purpose to working hard! You can’t just trash a client into the ground for no reason (I guess some people do) but they need to learn how to push themselves a little bit.
Sue @suenii_wu is doing 50 reps with 16 kg here!
