Is the problem that you just dont know how your posture should be when doing one, or you feel you aren't strong enough to push your bodyweight of the ground?

Grab some dumbells and chest press them, build up to a good weight then ask them if they can lift that weight

Start out with Planks. hold them for as long as you can.

Then just work off that.

If you want to know how to start learning them for your own reasons, start by keeping your knees on the floor and work your way up from there.

If you want to know how to do them because people are making fun of you then...

start off working your amrs out first with free weights to build up some muscles first to be able to push your weight up or do kne push ups or half way push ups just to get use to it hope I helped...

Put into more detail.. Is it you don't how to postion yourself or is it because your not stronge enough to push up your own body weight?

By the way man, although I agree with the premise of working your muscles to start before going in for an exercise you can't quite do yet, I feel I should say that the push-up/press-up predominantly uses your chest and shoulders, so if you feel you need to work up strength first try to focus these, however can't hurt to getting bigger guns too!

yeah, ive never worked out how to do them either. cant get the right posture.l don't understand it

If posture is your problem man my tip is just focus on keeping your back ruler straight, between you feet touching the floor, and your head, your body should sort of form a rectangle triangle, with your hands as the opposite side, if your back isnt straight, you won't reap te benefits of doing the press up
