Push-ups are a great way to get an upper body, core, and balance workout all in one “easy” exercise! This month, we’re going to make this available to any and all comers - start where you are and then build, build, build!
Wall push-ups, kneeling push-ups, traditional planks, one arm, clapping hands, whatever you can do on day one, set that as your baseline. I like to break mine into separate sets with a couple other movements in between, and you may prefer to do yours all in one go. Any way works, as long as we set ourselves the goal of improving a little each day.
“All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy” - so be sure to rest every 5 or 7 days, whatever works for you.
Here’s an example of how to increase - each number here is for pushups done in one set each day.
Week 1
5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 10, rest
