Actually I do these occasionally, or I'll do the dive bomber push ups which are a little bit harder as you follow the arc back through to the start rather than just lifting your hips back to the start. I find them good for shoulder strengthening and as something a bit different. Matt Furey raves about them but don't let that put you off them, they are a good push up alternative.

lol we do these in warm ups before we grapple at my school. my teacher calls them "cobra" push ups, probably because a good percentage of the students are indo-canadian
