First, I start using rest pause techniques and static holds and such ONLY after I've determined I can recouperate from straight sets of push-ups with this frequency.
Then, I use a controlled but explosive positive push-up, and A 6-8 SECOND NEGATIVE push-up.
I follow all that up with extreme chest stretching. This is in another post.
DC Push-Up Training at it's finest. My post was inspired by the silly arguments on the other thread. I'm surprised no one caught on a little quicker. Good job FatRat. I must spread my Karma around before I can distribute more.
