This RMAX forum post describes the Screwing Pushup and a suggestion progression through four versions that vary in diffulty and sophistication. Some individuals have reported developing the ability to do a strict 1-arm pushup by practicing Screwing Pushups.
Screwing Pushups may undoubtedly be useful for developing power for martial arts hand strikes. I suspect the power developed by this type of movement may also be useful for sportive activities as well. I felt a bit of a load on my obliques from the Screwing Squat Pushup and anticipate even more of a load in the other variations. In any case, it may be worth practicing for the sheer challenge and enjoyment of the movement itself.
