10 Day Push-Up Challenge

May 31, 2013 by Tatianna

 

Hello My Lovies,

It’s been a while since we’ve done a challenge, so today I have an amazing 10 day challenge for you ( I already started it yesterday ), this challenge is not only going to help you to gain even more push-up strength over the next 10 days, but you’re going to see a great difference in your upper body definition. I found this challenge through one of my latest favorite fitness websites Military Fitness, here is the link to the original challenge, but I am going to add a little touch of my own.

This week Miguel had to go to work early every day, so we were unable to film a workout for you guys, the new workout won’t be here till next week. Now, the challenge, you guys can begin this challenge either on a Saturday or on a Tuesday, since I already started this challenge yesterday ( Thursday ), today is my second day.

 

Rule

If you are a beginner and you can only do 10, 20, 30, 40 push-ups of your knees, or 5 regular and the rest of your knees, then your challenge will be 60 push-ups a day off your knees with different variations.  You can chose your won sets in which you will do them, so you can either do 10 at a time, 15 at a time or even 5 at a time.

If you can easily do 50 push-ups then you’re challenge number will be 200.

If you can easily do 75 or more push-ups then your challenge will be 300.

 

Challenge

On even days you will do 200 push-ups all at once in sets which are more comfortable to you. Pick only 2 variations of push-ups for this specific day.

On odd days you will do 200 push-ups throughout the day, using the same variations you did the previous day. On this day, you are also allowed to do an upper body workout.

Each even day, you will change the variation of your push-ups.  Yesterday I started with Elevated Wide Grip Push-ups and Elevated Inward Palm Push-ups.

 

Variations of push-ups:

Regular Push-ups, One Leg Push-ups, Elevated Push-ups, One leg elevated push-up

Wide grip Push-up, Wide grip one leg push-up, Elevated Wide Grip Push-up, Elevated One Leg Wide Grip Push-up

Diamond Push-ups, One Leg Diamond Push-ups, Elevated Diamond Push-ups

Bear Push-ups

Shoulder Presses, One Leg Shoulder Presses, Elevated Shoulder Presses

Inward and Outward Palm Push-ups

 

Let’s do this challenge together!  Make sure you also record your max push-ups within 1 minute, prior to doing this challenge. And then you will take another test 10 days later. Set your Gymboss Timer for 1 minute and do as many as you can till the timer stops.

After the 10 days had passed take full 3 days off from the upper body workouts.

Have a wonderful weekend Lovies!

Hugs,

Tati
