Push-ups are an amazing, functional bodyweight exercise. If you’re wanting to build strength, then you’ve come to the right place!
My love for push-ups developed while I was a teenager on my high school swim team. If someone was late to practice, the entire team would have to do 10 push-ups as motivation for everyone to be on time. Unfortunately, that rule didn’t stick with many of my team members, which meant that sometimes we had to do as many as a few hundred push-ups at the end of practice each day. I will happily admit that even though my tired arms were not always excited to do extra push-ups, I quickly gained an appreciation for the movement once I started seeing strength gains in my chest, triceps, and shoulders. So the more you do them, the easier it’ll get. I promise!
This 30-day push-up challenge is designed to transform your arms, increase your strength, and keep you consistent. So what are you waiting for? Let’s get started!
