If you are referring to making your "knuckle bones" stronger, no, not directly. Performing any type of weight or resistance training will improve overall bone density and strength. So in an indirect way, your knuckle bones would get stronger ... but so would other bones. The primary benefit of performing pushups on your knuckles is that it avoids the traditional wrist flexion that you experience when you have your hands flat on the floor during a pushup. Bending the wrists back can be uncomfortable for some people, or lead to wrist injury. By performing them on your knuckles, you put the wrist in a non-flexed, neutral position, mitigating these risks. However, knuckle pushups are also uncomfortable for some people because there is very little flesh between the knuckles and skin. Over time, you may become less sensitive to it, but some people never do. If wrist flexion is a concern, you can always perform your pushups using pushup bars or something like the Perfect Pushup.

Can a kid do a push up?
Hi there, Can Kids do push ups? ~ Yes kids can do push ups. For some people it takes a lot of practice while others may just simply be able to preform them. Usually push ups take practice and strength training. For example if you do one push up every hour for a week you can slowly get better and stronger. I consider my self a teen and not a kid, but I do 25 push ups a night because they are required in my PE class, being able to do 75 pushups gets you an A. I have been practicing since 6th grade and am now able to do 105 pushups. Luv Laughing Lilly ♥
