    since they're not that intense, breathing isn't that significant, but you should breathe out when you push up.

    Then you aren't doing enough of them. By 100 they should be feeling

    intense, and then breathing is important.

    Breath out as you extend your hands, and same principle used when

    you extend your hand for a punch.

    no, dumbass, that's the whole point; if they were so intense, you wouldn't need to do 100 to be feeling the burn.

    wtf are you talking about? I said that push ups weren't intense because you needed to do a lot to feel the burn. That implies I am speaking from my perspective which comes from experience. Yes, I'm fat.....5'9, 140 with 6% bodyfat......and if I do push ups in strength training, I do them in sets of 50-75.

    And Relentless, why do you always have some bull**** sideline comment?
