Ok so I have been doing crunches for like 2 weeks now and they are easy for me. But I have now decided to start doing push-ups but I have the hardest time with them. Anyone got any tips to make it easy or rather less frustrating!

then when you think you got those down..try them on your knees instead of your toes.
another way you could do more would be just lifting weights. youll get stronger and be able to do more push-ups.

You will quickly be able to increase the number you do and transfer to the floor in a few weeks. Eat lots of protein and drink lots of water. Good luck, stud!

You'll feel the burn and do ten of those. Take a break and do ten more. Another thing that will help instead of crunches is do a v-seat. While you're doing a v-seat lower and raise your legs slowly... it really helps your abs and you burn more fat than crunches.
