Subject: Think you're strong at push-ups? Try THIS...
Training your chest with bodyweight movements such as push-ups is a great idea...and may even currently be a necessity for you.
When you get stronger with push-ups, there comes a point where you'll no longer have enough resistance to really build the chest effectively.
That's where THIS variation of the push-up comes into play. It's a bodyweight-only exercise that dramatically ramps up the demands on the chest....and all you need is a floor and a wall to do it.
To perform this one, you will need a good base level of strength in the push-up exercise...you'll need to be able to perform at least 20 to 30 or more push-ups before this one becomes practical for you.
To give you an idea, I can do more than 50 push-ups and the first time I tried this variation, I got 4 reps with it...
So yeah, it's challenging!
Oh, and I almost forgot to mention, this one will trash your core, too :).
