Require more of your body
Last night my healthy eating challenge partner (Gail) and I went to the So You Think You Can Dance Tour Concert in Orlando. It was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. And it was inspiring. I felt myself making all kinds of promises about pushing myself harder in my personal fitness so my body could do more of what it was made to do. I invite you to Youtube some of their performances. It is incredible what grace and beauty you can display by moving your fit body!
So as reality hits me again and I focus on what direction I want to take in stepping up my fitness efforts I thought about push ups.
Several months ago I saw Michelle Obama on the Ellen show. They mentioned her "Let's move" campaign and invited her to compete with Ellen to see who could do the most push ups. I have to admit she is a pretty fit first lady but take a look. I think both Michelle and Ellen are in their 40's and these push ups are pretty impressive https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OTAIedFfUBU
Now you may be thinking (like me) that you can't do even one push up (even a bent knee girl push up) But I have a method for you to work up to it. Please take a minute and watch this video which teaches an easy path to being able to do a full push up. First you push against a wall and then when you can do 30 reps of that you progress to pushing off the kitchen counter and then when you can do 30 reps of that you being doing push ups against a stair just a bit lower than your kitchen counter. You work your way down the stairs (moving on when you can do 30 reps) until finally you can do full push ups on the floor.
Here's the you tube video I'd like you to watch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gL1593kROa8
That's right ladies. Even if you are only pushing against the wall our weekly challenge this week is to work each day toward doing 30 reps of push ups against something!
And though I haven't probably stressed this enough I would hope you have realized that none of these challenges are going to make a big impact on your life time of fitness if you only do them for a week. I challenge you to consider carefully adopting many of these habits as things you want to continue for your whole life!

ReplyDeleteFitness Tip 1 :

The majority of the fitness tips that you come across nowadays would request you to go for extended exercises in gym and eat only salads in addition to get registered with various elevated priced health clubs. By fitness tips, the majority of us believe that we have to totally change our life-style and thus the majority of us never bother to think about various helpful fitness tips. The terror of abandoning your dietetic habits is one of the obstacles between people and fitness tips.
Fitness Tip 2 :
Try to discover the golden signify between over training and concrete, tangible exercises gains and advantages . Calculate carefully the depth, period and frequency of your exercises. You require visible and quick results but a burnout might prove disastrous .
Fitness Tip 3 :
No exercises program and no diet will bring long term consequences if you do not make a serious responsibility. Nourish your self motivation and person discipline. Look into the mirror , if your eyes slash and spark at that time you be able to go on. Put Specific Objectives Setting specific goals means that you have to forget going to the fitness center without even knowing the cause you go. For example, set the practical objective of gaining 5 pounds of muscle mass throughout the next couple of months or to improve your bench weight 10 percent. Your exercises, your diet, your supplementation even your brain must be focused on this objective.
