Day 72: Pushups

Tried and true, and you should be crushing today.

Time Domain

• 3 Rounds - you will be performing 11 reps per round

  • Start the clock

  • Execute 12 pushups at whatever level you choose

  • Rest for an entire 1:00 after completion. Not the rest of the minute, but a full 1:00 of rest.

  • Go again. 3 total sets. 36 total pushups.

  • Perform each push-up perfectly. Don’t rush. Enjoy the movement. It’s not a race to the end. Imagine your muscles working. Squeeze your glutes at the top of the pushup. Stay tight. Squeeze your abs to keep a firm trunk. Try to blast out of the bottom explosively.
