    Did this week's challenge tonight and it felt pretty good. I was a little confused by the second move...were we supposed to leave our feet in the air the whole time, or raise and lower them for each rep? I raised and lowered and it was a workout for sure. Way harder than just leaving the legs in the air and crunching up, which is what I had always done in the past. Funny you had this as our challenge for the week and then ask about goals...mine is a killer six pack! My birthday is June 8th, I know I'll be rocking one by then...CAN'T WAIT. I gain weight almost exclusively around my middle, so even though I'm really healthy, I'm trying to lose those last couple pounds to get the fat off my stomach and let those abs show through!!

    THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE: SCREAMING 2011

    GOOD JOB ON THE CHALLENGES SO FAR. THIS WEEK YOU WILL DROP AND GIVE ME 2011. YOU WILL BE DOING PUSH UPS THROUGH OUT THE WEEK. YOU HAVE TO DO A TOTAL OF 2,011 PUSH UPS. YOU CAN BREAK IT DOWN OR ALL AT ONCE HOW EVER YOU WANT TO DO THEM POINT IS YOU HAVE TO DO A TOTAL OF 2011. IT CAN BE REGULAR PUSH UPS, TRICEP PUSH UPS, SPIDER MAN PUSH UPS, MODIFIED PUSH UPS OR ANY PUSH UPS YOU KNOW. BE CREATIVE AND TRY A DIFFERENT TYPE OF PUSH UP.

    IF YOU ARE WATCHING TV DO SOME PUSH UPS DURING THE COMMERCIAL. POINT IS YOUR ARMS WILL BE SCREAMING TO THE END. YOU CAN NOT COUNT THE PUSH UPS THAT ARE ALREADY IN YOUR REGULAR ROUTINE. THESE ARE EXTRA PUSH UPS APART FROM YOUR WORKOUTS. SHARE WITH US YOUR RESULTS INCLUDING WHAT TYPE OF PUSH UP YOU DID. ALSO SHARE WITH US HOW TO DO THOSE DIFFERENT TYPE OF PUSH UPS SO OTHERS CAN TRY IT.


    AT THE BOTTOM ARE SOME PUSH UPS THAT I KNOW. GOOD LUCK, HAVE FUN AND KEEP IN TOUCH :):bigsmile:

    STANDARD PUSH UP:
    Lie face down on the floor with your palms at shoulder level, fingers pointing forward. Push yourself up until your body weight rests only on your palms and toes. Lower yourself and repeat. To accent the chest, place your hands wider than shoulder-width; to target the back and triceps, bring your hands close together with thumbs and index fingers touching. Make it easier do them in your knee.




    TRICEP PUSH UP:
    Get in plank position with your hands shoulder-width apart (A). Lower your chest toward the floor while keeping your upper arms parallel to your sides and your elbows pointing straight back (B). Push back up to start. That's one rep. To make it easier, lower your knees to the ground.

    SPIDERMAN PUSH UP:
    •Come into plank position (top of a push-up), with your hands under your shoulders, and your body in one straight line. If you can't do a push-up this way, just lower your knees to the floor (as shown in the second half of the video).
    •As you bend your elbows out to the side and lower your torso toward the floor, bend your left knee and touch it to your left elbow.
    •As you straighten your arms, come back to plank position with your left foot next to your right. Now lower your torso down and touch your right knee to your right elbow. Then return back to plank position.
    •This counts as one repetition.

    INCLINE PUSH UP:
    Stand facing a wall, about 2-3 feet away, arms straight out in front of you. Touch the wall with palms flat and support your weight. Slowly lower your chest to the wall., keeping your knees and back straight. Push back out and repeat.


    DECLINE PUSH UP:
    Support your body weight on your arms and elevate both feet behind you on an exercise bench or a chair. Keep your knees locked and your back straight as you lower your chest to the floor and push back up. Repeat.
