  Targeting Muscles With Push-Ups

  I suspect this picture was referring to some sort of board with holes in it that you’d put a pair of handle grips into for stability, each set of holes would work a different muscles.

  I typically put one foot on top of the other during push-ups, and switch feet every 10th rep. I also like to mix it up by elevating my feet onto a chair or crate, placing my hands on the top (or sides) of a medicine ball, raising a leg behind me into the air, doing claps, Japanese/judo push-ups (“under the fence” from P90X), etc. I don’t usually do these all in one day, and certainly not all at once.

  I’m contemplating picking up a weighted vest, which would be cool for push-ups as well. Any other versions that you guys like?
