You've got to see this 11 90 degree push ups. I think I will need to devote a little more time to push ups to be able to do a few of these:

I would get down and try some right now-but visions of face plants prevent me from taking the risk.

Don't try this at home

Body weight is finally moving in the right direction. Like they say it is all about what you put in your mouth-or avoid putting in your mouth. I have been working out a little more consistantly this last week, and sure enough the scale starts to show it as well. I came across some impressive varations of push ups on you tube. The push ups with a vengence videos are pretty cool. As well as being on you tube . You can find them on:

Success seems to be largely a matter of hanging on after others have let go.

Okay back to my non-political blogging. Not that a little socio-political commentary isn't good every once and a while....Back to the regular workout this week ,although I had a bit of nagging shoulder pain in one shoulder. For the most part I tried to take it easy on the push ups and chin ups. Managed to work out each day -but a little less intensly and the push up/chin up numbers were a little lower. Shoulder seems fine this morning.

Came across an interesting blog. It is:

In general we all want to get fit fast-however life and our bodies don't work that way.

Not one to usually comment on politics-but as a Canadian I am surprised at the U.S election. As Canadians we often watch the Presidential election race in awe. In the last few elections it seems that whoever Canadians think is the obvious choice-the Americans vote for the other guy. I had heard about a poll this summer where Obama had a higher approval rate with Canadians than our own Prime Minister. I have thought McCain was a good candidate -but I have to say I was routing for Obama. The credit crisis in the US has to have done McCain in-a little to hard to distance yourself from Bush at that point in the game. But nonetheless even though the polls were favoring Obama-he seemed like the obvious choice, that seemed like it would be the kiss of death to his campaign. Just when I thought I was starting to understand U.S politics-the rules all change. Great to have a non-white leader in the states. Have to say I am going to miss the Sarah Palin segments on SNL. Got to say I think she was probably way more competant than she came across in the media, but the real story is clearly Tina Fey is a comic genius.

I don't have a box like this so I have been using a bamboo yoga block. They are a nice variation to the regular push up. The push ups/chin numbers are a little better this week. Was trying to do 1000 over the day yesterday. 800 or so was plenty as I am plenty sore today.
