s.c. husker Posted January 1, 2008 Author Share Posted January 1, 2008 It is alot differt than a regular pushup and believe me I was Infantry and did plenty of pushups, using these devises balance comes in to play and the turning movement gives that cut look. The things swivel and you need to have control so they dont move until you want them to. Alright I can see that..how easy do they swivel? I guess I need to try them before I can completely understand Stainless steel ball bearings, they swivel very easy, I use mine on carpet and there is no problem, I skip a day between workouts, if you follow the routine it works the hell out of the whole upper body.

If you want a pushup that makes your whole body hurt I have one for you. Get one of those exercise balls and put your feet up on that. Then have two 3 or 4 pound medicine balls and put one under each one of your hands so you are balanced on all of them. Then try to do 5 to 10 pushups!!!! Those are the hardest pushups I've ever done in my life!!!! well BRI the next time you go to the gym you need to try this one. get 2 20lb dumbbells and something to elevate your feet on. place your hands on the dumb bells and assume the elevated feet push up position. do 1 pushup then lift one of the dumb bells up to your chest in a rowing motion, then do another pushup and repeat the rowing with the other arm. that is 1 repitition. now try and complete 10 of those. That's good, I'm going to try that. I sometimes wear a backpack with weight plates in it and elevate my feet on a bench, does a heck of a job. Ever try to do push ups standing on your hands, I tried it before and about killed myself. Had my feet balanced on the wall. Quote Link to comment

admo Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 I like Jack Black's style of push ups better! "C**K Push Ups" If any of you have ever heard it, it's pretty darn funny! How many can you do? You mean C--K push ups? One. Gotta give it up for Tenacious D! Man the CD & DVD are awesome! Quote Link to comment
