Best Answer

This variation is performed with your hands close together underneath your chest, the thumbs and forefingers of each hand touching each other. You lower yourself until your chest touches your hands and then push yourself back up. Diamond pushups places more stress on your triceps and will really help to fill them out. A folded towel will provide cusioning for your hands. It's a normal pushup done with your hands positioned in a diamond shape manner, such that your index fingers on both hands are touching one another, as are your thumbs.

How many day to get strong on push ups?

Not very. Whether you are doing 3 count push ups, diamond push ups, timed push ups, etc. It's not going to help you doing 1000 a day. Especially if you have not done 1000 a day in increments of more than 50 at a time. You need to let your body rest. If you do 1000 push ups over three days or 1000 push ups a day three times a week, your muscles will grow stronger. Not to mention that there will be less of a risk of injury. Your muscles grow by tearing and repairing. If you continuously do push ups at that rate your muscles will tear without adequate time to repair, which will give you the opposite reaction you are aiming for.
