Newbie here. How important are push-ups for shoulder/arm/back/core strength. I have a morning routine where I do several sets of 20, 30, 40, or 50 for between 150-300 a few days a week. Then swim 1000 yds or more later in the day.
I'm in no danger of straining anything with that routine. I was a shot putter, which is a push, not a throw, and that's what was needed. I wanted to know if that is sufficient or was there a different sort of routine that would be better. I'm aiming for longer distances, 1000 and up, not sprints.
