I did a push up while volunteering today at a local coffee shop @ a senior center. I put both hands down on the counter and pushed myself up putting my feet off the floor. I held myself just for a few seconds..wow! Yet i have a hard time doing push ups on the floor and stuck doing those modified push-ups!

    That's amazing. You go girl. ... I can't do one pull up on the assisted pull-up machine without offsetting most of my weight!!
