3-Minute Pushup Tips

I've added an extra day to the pushup challenge...so you can still get your entry in before midnight tonight. Here are the rules:

Lots of folks surprising themselves with their results...and here's one big tip...Do NOT overdo it in the first set. If you're a guy and can do 40 pushups straight, don't do more than 15-20 in your first set.

I can do 57 in a row and I stopped at 20 and went:

20-20-20-15-10-10-10-5-4

If you do 30 in your first set you'll bonk too quickly.

Today's workout for me

1) Max Jumps (5x2)

2) Wide Sqt (3x5)

3A) Olympic Squat (2x5)
3B) RDL (2x8)
3A) Cable Abs (2x20)

*************************
Now a word of warning...

Don't go depending on the "cardio confessional" today...you can't burn off a 2500 calorie Easter Sunday dinner/chocolate fest with 30 minutes on a cardio
machine. Just forget about it. So instead of dreading a cardio workout, do a TT workout that gets you pumped.

And today's kick-butt mindset tip:
Don't be satisfied with the norm if you want more. It's okay to want to achieve special results. The world needs folks who dream and achieve big things. Keep pushing to reach your full potential. Persevere. Never give up. And don't let anyone hold you back.

Stay strong,

Craig
