Press up challenge

[Rich Rule]

I have always done knuckle pressups as standard apart from wide stance. I usually have boxing wraps on though. Just last night i was on the kitchen floor after a large meal and a few alcoholic beverages... hic!

Palms down is too painful for me. My wrists are shot but I'll give it a try on the knuckles.

Did 12:5. Could have squeezed a few more but didn't want to push it. Very good exercise that.

[Rich Rule]

So come on then Martyn... what does Glasgies answer to Charles Atlas manage? we are dying to know.

[APC]

10.0.

 

Although on higher 9's and 10's I had to relax into an arched back after locking out my arms on the up bits. Only had a bowl of Shreddies at 10 this morning and felt pretty hungry. Will try and push tomorrow to see whether can get any further.

Butt and chin clear but belly still touching:blushing:

[Lancstree]

Woke up aching today so it is a good exercise. Doing pressups this way is less boring too
