You'll get better with practice. Your body weight also counts against you in this exercise. There are many variations of pushups. I do knuckle pushups (not recommended for beginners), but also diamond pushups. I also have those twisty handles that make them tougher, but I'm exhausted after doing those!

Now it's forever immortalised in my quotation of your 4000th post. Mwahaha.

I'll edit in the correction if you want to edit your 4000th post. Nobody'll suspect a thing.

Ahhh okay. Is a diamond push up that one where your hands are together?

That's the one, so your index fingers and thumbs touch to form a diamond. They're really difficult I find, and the ones I do are probably only half way. Great for the triceps. Thankfully I have a weight bench for that though. :p
