Question about Press ups?

Hi

I've recently started working out, including press ups, and because my shoulders weren't the strongest I started with the easier knee press ups

Now I've built up to the point where I can do about 22/23 of the knee press ups, and I'm wondering if this is a good time to switch to full press ups? Or should I wait until I can do more, say 30?40?

I'm sure I read somewhere that when you can do 20, you should switch to full press ups, but i'm not sure.

Thankyou :)

    Personally I would go onto full press ups. But you will need to be careful not to hurt your wrists.

    You can switch any time. It's the work that matters. It may be that you can only do 10, but as long as they are hard work, you will benefit.
