Through the holidays, it becomes even more important to keep up with your push ups. With all the cookies and cakes and candycanes, you will likely gain at least 5 pounds if you don't increase your movement, or at least keep it constant.
Something easy you can try is to do 2 minutes of push ups every day through the 12 days of Christmas (and New Year's). Even though we're all busy traveling around and eating, we all have 2 minutes we can spend to keep ourselves in shape.
So if you've a little bit of downtime, get on the ground and do some push ups. If you've got the push up handles, now would be the time to get 'em out and use them.
Merry Christmas!

Debo,
If your elbow is hurting at the back, that's the olecranon - which could be the ulnar nerve, but more likely is the triceps ligament.
I recommend icing like you would any sprain, stop doing push ups for about a week, and when you come back take it easy for 2 weeks. You'll also probably need to do a few more diamond push ups (5-10) 2x/day for a few weeks to strengthen the triceps ligament.
Good luck!
I did 88 for 2008 on New Years!
Nice encouragement here on your blog.
Best,
Coop
Hi, I have an off topic question for you but I couldn't find any contacts info so I will ask you here, I hope you don't mind...I see you advertise As seen on PC products ( Push up pro ) my question is, is it a trusted affiliate program, cause I have been burned from many like it, they just didn't send the money. So have you received any payments? Thanks and sorry for the off topic!
Actually, I haven't been paid yet, so I can't tell you.
10x anyway, I hope they are not a scam...
