Hi, have you tried planks or press ups?

Use rescue inhaler 15 mins. Before push-ups?

This works for me. Breathing through nose, not open mouth. Open mouth I tend to inhale quick on start an don't control/relax breathing. Causes trigger. Also use mat, dust prevention.

Hope this helps, I'm learning every day!

Best of luck with strength building!
