SOP for doing push ups!

today, i came home with the resolution to do 20 push ups a day so that i can go back in krabi to climb one year later. i tried. and decided to reduce the number to 5 push ups a day. i tried again. and decided to do 5 push ups with knees on the floor instead. depressed, i went to seek advice from my 'future-brother-in-law-in-lala-land' and realise he got what it takes to write a damn good SOP! (btw, SOP = standard operating procedures)

pushups, i bet she can do

if she cant do normal ground pushups

she with incline pushups

tht means

instead of having both your feet and hands on the ground

your hands on a higher ground

say your sofa

then your leg still on the floor

its easier to do

once she got the strenght to do like 20

in a go

then she can strt pushups

then tell her

quality is more impt than quantity

pple tend to "anyhow" do when they get tired

if she cant do standard ones anymore, ask her to stop

no pt forcing herself to do when her position is not right

then.... just as impt, keep her back straight at all times

pple's back tend to arch when they are tired

at first not easy to do, you will get sian

but once you get the hang of it

you will find it eaiser to train

she just have to endure the initial period

oh ya

do it slowly

when you go down, take abt 1.5-2 secs

the same for going up, 1.5-2 secs

do it slowly, to train for muscle endurance

she want do climbing, muslce endurance more impt, rather than brute strenght

pple always gt the wrng idea tht fast means good

then try to increase the no. of pushups, say every 2 days

by 1 or 2

a bit slow, but need patience, bo bian

and there you go, she is gd to strt

not bad right!? its almost like song lyrics (and its definitely better than the fun pack song!) gonna try it tomorrow! oh yea, gonna check out the rocks in bukit timah soon! hopefully there are low ones to do bouldering for fun! *excited!*
