Dexter and Marmadaddy's Group: CLOSED (Page 16)

I am a real push up girl.  I find the knee ones just as challenging as the regular do I might as well do the regular.

I think 5 minutes is a long long time.  My monthly strength testing is only for 2 minutes and I am dying.  I'll definitely be in though.  I could use some core fitness.  I HATE crunches and push ups so this will keep me honest.

Although quite funny, my Double-D's would have to disagree.  The push ups on knees work the muscle groups differently.  To me they are just as much of a b#tch as the regular ones.  I guess its personal preference and I say that the men should also be able to try it on their knees if they so choose.

Sorry..

As long as the trophy still has the basket ball writing on it.

dexter - 2010-03-05 9:13 PM Real push ups.

For guys and gals? Hmmm....it's harder for girls to do real pushups, but I will do them. It will help me with Crossfit.

Why?

boobs.

Also, pound for pound, females carry proportionally more body fat, have larger tushes, are stronger in lower body and weaker in upper body (comparatively) and produce less testosterone, therefore having a harder time building overall musculature than a comparative male. Or so I've read, anyway.

Bottom line: We can still kick your behinds. It just takes us a lot more work.

[Edited for a more acceptable word for what we can kick. ]

You have never seen my beer gut.  I didn't get the dickydo award for nothing.  You know when you look down and can't see it. 

Ok-so we all have our bodily challenges...push ups-with or without knees, beer guts, boobs, or dicky do's...-do them, count them and report them. Winner gets **??** was the question-I think we should have a travelling trophy-reigning challenge winner holds the trophy until the next challenge when it is passed on -like a baton- or prized heirloom. I think I have an old middle school basketball trophy I could donate for the cause...unless someone has something grander. (I know it's hard to come up with something better than THAT, but you can try!)

I say a better challenge is how many excuses can we come up with and how long can we make this thread so that we don't really ever have to start the push up/sit up thing.
