Push-ups!

NaomiJFoster

I've always hated push-ups. I have bad shoulders, and push-ups make me nervous about dislocations. Plus, they're hard!

I've been doing knee-style push-ups for years. And years. And years. Don't love them that way, but don't hate them.

Today, I did six 'proper' push-ups. On my toes. It's the first time I've ever tried it.

Six!

And I didn't die.

Congratulations! They are not easy. I do love them though. It's very gratifying to see how you can do more and more with practice.

That is a great start. Awesome! I know I don't like push up's or squats and I am up to 30 push up's and 20 squats.

Weeeeee!! Great job!! I started doing knee push ups in about November; I could only manage three - now I can do 21 I'm so desperate to do proper push ups like you're doing but I'm not strong enough to even do one nice to know that I might get there one day!

Well done! I suck at push ups, hopefully I'll be like you and be able to do a proper one soon!

Thanks everyone! It's very rewarding, and amazing, to see the evidence of the changes your body is going through. The human body is an amazing thing.
