Might as well take this one seriously too. befuddlement

What techniques do you guys use? I'm never sure I'm in the correct position. Also, only 12, and as I just hinted I might be cheating and not even know it.

I just do the regular technique:  straight back, head down, and then I lower my body until my chest/nose/whatever comes first is about an inch or two above the ground.  I personally think that as long as you believe you're getting a good workout, you're not cheating.

I used to be like 5'7" and 130 pounds.

I recently weighed myself and somehow gained 40 pounds, but I don't see where it went

Maybe it went to your 24 testicles.

I can do around 40 pushups.
I'm trying to get to one hundred with this website:http://hundredpushups.com/
Tomorrow's going to be my third day of the first week.

Only did them in gym. Guys needed 35 pushups to pass, and I could do them. So 35 for me? ;p

I can only do about 20... I've noticed short people tend to be really good at doing push-ups... must have something to do with their weight distribution or something

Thanks. I normally do 20-30 before I go to sleep and occasionally when I wake up. A military guy at my school said doing them at those times improves your strength the most.

Yes it does because it gives your body a chance to heal and grow stronger as you sleep right after the push ups.
