IK problem

Hi
Can anyone helping me? I trying to make a pusup animation, but the problem is I don’t want the elbow to close to the body, like this picture:

want to make the elbow point outward as much as possible like this

I try to stick the arm to the ground and make IK bones for the chest, shoulder, arm and forearm. The forearm is IK tagret to the IK hand and with 3 bone effected. I tried to make pole target but not good. Can some one explain how make elbow as far as body as possible?

You have double posted this… please delete one or the other, I have responded to the other post you made. You must be patient and allow your first 10 posts to be moderated, this can take several hours, so don’t re-post the same question if it does not appear instantly.
