I do them occasionally, but never really fell in love with them. The perfect push-up is a huge waste of money, I say... you can get a great push-up with this thing called the floor. If no floors are available, the ground will do. Save your 30 bucks.

Increase work capacity over broad time and modal domains. Intensity is key.

Haha thats basically all I needed to hear, I was extremely reluctant to buy them and glad that I dint really do it.

I prefer diamond push up and knuckle pushups, but knuckle push ups I dont really feel anything in my chest like normal flat handed ones.

What makes the Hindu push-up better than the regular push-up?

If you're really into tough stuff, you can do knuckle push-ups on the floor where you twist the wrists at the end, like the perfect push-up does. If you really want that twist....

All sorts of pushups use your abs and hip flexors because you hold yourself in a plank position with those muscles.

Also, diamond pushups are terrible on your shoulders, I recommend against them.

What about clapping push ups...some people say they are bad for your shoulders as well and some say they are good...which one is it...lol?

So long as you are not pushing from a position where your elbows are awkwardly turned out and your hands in close (ala diamond pushups) you're good to go. Clapping pushups are fantastic, I highly recommend them.
