Do ONE great push up and you have just worked ALL your muscles. If you’re into seeing visible muscle on your arms, having a tighter butt, a strong back and leaner abs then do ONE great push up.
Why ONE push up? Because if you can hold your entire body tight and stay connected as you lower yourself down and up- you are doing awesome.
Here’s how to get the most results from your Push UP
- 1. Keep your elbows in – Elbows out simply builds wide shoulders and turns off your core – STOP THAT!
- 2. Keep your butt tight as possible! – This keeps your deep abdominal muscles on
- 3. Go all the way down and up. – Stop cheating yourself and going half way – NOSE to the floor friends.
Can’t quite nail all that – No sweat – all ya gotta do is bring the floor up to you! hence my yoga block. This is as far as I can hold rock hard form as I travel down and up.
SImply pick a raised surface – find a height you can get all the way down to AND all the way back up from after touching your nose.
Do this protocol 5 times a week.
Do ONE great push up Every Hour on the hour. ( do as many open hours as you can. For example, here’s mine for tomorrow:
5 AM, then I work for 3 hours straight , 8:05 AM, 9:05 AM, then no breaks till 2 PM. So 2:05 PM, 3:05 PM . You get the idea, do the best you can.
