    Hit my latest mini goal this morning. Two thirds of the way there has a nice ring to it. :)

    On to the next.

    I really just want to do a push up. Just one...the correct way. I can tell I'm getting closer.

    What do you do currently? I have always done them with legs crossed at knees and feet up (girl style?) So I was doing at least 30 in my body weight circuits training exercises but I decided one day I was just going to try an actual pushup and I did 10 of them in a row. You might surprise yourself, especially if you do other upper body and core workouts.

    I have a bum knee so girl style doesn't work for me. I do "elderly style"which is what we endearingly call it in my house. I stand away from the wall and do standing push ups. I also get into a push up position on the floor and hold it at various heights. I can't go all the way down and hold it...yet.

    I read that using stairs (and moving down one stair every week) is closer to a full push up than a knee push up.

    No idea if that's true. But they said it had to do with the angle of your body. Or something.

    Thanks for the tip! I use the wall right now and step farther away every week. I can't do knee push ups bc of a bum knee. The stairs make sense!
