          might be a dumb question...but how exactly do u do chin pushups?

          1st time ive heard of this lol.

          with regular pushups you use ur hands and arms to get up...but wat do u do with the chin...do u try to stay up as long as possible or wat?

          i could have googled it but fluck it.

            I tried it. I dont know, it hurts your chin but it feels like its specifically targeting the muscles in your jaw.

            i tried lowering my body and moving back up but thats ****** and does nothing. when I tried it as if I was doing the plank without hands it had more of a workout feel. So I think you should do it like the plank more so than a pushup.

                No wonder he had such a great chin. Unfortunately, Mosley had a great strategy to break him down.

                  Common practice in wrestling. Not on your chin, with your forehead, then turned around with the top of your head. Builds up the muscles in the neck. Same thing with Muay Thai, laying on your back, clinching your teeth doing neck ups. At least when I was training.
                  Might be one of those old gems lost on modern boxing.

                    The first pic looks like he might be trying to strengthen his jaw. I'm not sure it's even possible to literally strengthen your chin. In the second pic it looks like this exercise focuses on the neck. KO's generally come from the snapping on the neck so that's why you see fighters doing a lot of neckwork.
