Jack Lalanne - Fingertip Pushups
« on: February 06, 2008, 09:45:57 PM »


this is far crazier than  fingertip pushups though!
this pushup he does is almost impossible. 

I can probably do a pushup on thumb and index finger , and I even did one handed pushups once when an enemy challeneged me once! But this thing I cannot do.. though i have not been exercising.

This thing probably requires alot of "core strength".

exercises like "the plank"  (from the underground guide to warrior fitness)  are probably prerequisisites for this one to build the strength for it.

I could be wrong.. probably am wrong.

 maybe some people here can do it.  Anyone?

I find it almost impossible to stay in the position he is in for these pushups.

That is really interesting, because most bodyweight exercises are so easy it is a joke.  This is actually a difficult one.. which is GREAT!
