Improving On The Push-Up No. 1 - (Push Chair Crunch Chair)

http://www.GETfizzYcaL.com

This exercise hits every major upper body muscle and of course the abs.

The Push Chair Crunch Chair (sorry couldn't think of a quirky catchy name) is a real beast of an exercise that will develop not only your chest and abs but also your triceps, biceps, shoulders and back.

The cruch part of the exercise if done on thick carpet is intense but well worth the effort if you want nut cracking abs!!

Tips -
(1) Too increase the intensity on your chest try to go as deep as is comfortable between the chairs.

(2) Before you start to crunch your abs to bring your legs forward make sure to tilt your pelvis up to stop your back sagging. If your back sags too much that means you've gone farther than your midsection can cope with.

(3) Imagine your abs are a wet sponge and when you get to the top of the movement try to squeeze all the water out.

(4) Make sure the chairs you use are strong and sturdy.

(5) Make sure that immediatley behind the roller chair there is a wall or something really strong and sturdy to stop it from rolling away on your way back.

*NB* Please consult a doctor before starting any new exercise programme.

Man i did 10set of 10 push ups yesterday using 2 chairs and the cock for legs, basicly what u did but not to pull the chair will legs. So chair push ups are better? My question can u develop muscles uisng push ups? if u dont take anythin.( Protein, suplements, roids>)

[FizzycalFitness]

Yep - if you can be consistent with your workouts, make them progressively harder and you sleep well and eat well! But if not consider supplementing your diet.

hey man, gotta say, nice idea using the wheely chair for the legs and throwing in the ab workout in the middle...

Damn, I thought I was the only one to think of this! Great exercise though, this type of pushup alone works the core pretty intensely, but adding in the roller chair really pushes your abdominal muscles. Btw, I have the same chair, I'm sitting in it now. Its a piece of shit, eh?
