The eccentric push up is a great way to build arm strength as your progress toward doing push ups with your knees off the ground. It teaches you control through the arms, shoulders, and midsection. Additionally you are able to exert more force in an eccentric (lowering) motion than you can in a concentric (pushing) motion. This carries over to the strength adaptation needed for pushing with more force in your push up exercises. https://strongmadesimple.com
