  • Never knew JLL push ups were a calve workout

  • @goingcrazy38 also don't know anatomy

    

  • I did take another look, and the point I made still stands - what you did, however much "muscle recruitment" you had was NOT Jack LaLanne's fingertip push-ups. In this videos link you will see that his feet are placed apart for balance I think and his body movement is distinctly going UP & DOWN with his ankles/feet NOT moving as yours did. Obviously, being a woman, you do not have the upper body strength to accomplish this feat in the same way. Sorry. Nice try, but no cigar, carolpilates.

  • @narjis542003 body mechanics

  • does it matter if l take another look? it's still the same video, and you still do it wrong.

    Bye

  • @Shonaripa absolutely doesn't matter in the least

  • Good try.... but these are incorrect. You failed epically.

  • OMG - that is a travesty to Mr LaLanne. Your upper body BARELY moves but you sway your legs nicely. Just for you, I will most certainly post a video showing proper form. You are a charlatan, claiming 'first woman blah blah blah..."

  • looks like your humping to ground LOL

  • Actually, wandering through the Amazon wilderness a few years ago, and more recently in a remote village near Timbuktu, I saw some women do this move! I'm being sarcastic! Ridiculous to think you are the 'first woman' to have done this move. Very egotistical!!

  • That's not a fingertip push up. you used your elbows. :(

  • and that's why Jack Lalanne himself said "Don't try it! Get your husband to try it, but not you!"

  • @narjis542003 This has nothing to do with "being a woman". Just this particular woman doesn't have enough upper body strength--not because she's a woman, just didn't train upper body enough.

  • @carolpilates I was being sarcastic, I'm saying the motion your creating is originating from you flexing and relaxing your calves, this is not what Jack laLanne push ups are supposed to work out.

  • @GreekPT again...get over yourself
