    @theclaw900
    Here is the post for the pull up challenge @Timothyh27 mentioned. (Sorry if I lost the links when copying and pasting...hopefully you can still get there.)


    Get your lats and arms in shape this fall and challenge yourself using the Armstrong pull-up program.
    You can follow one of three programs designed for Beginners, Advanced pull-uppers, and women.
    The challenge will utilize the program set forth here:

    Push ups on toes will come, doing them from your knees is good. Modifications are all good! There are many variations too!!
