Dynamo Push Up Exercise


Dynamo Push-up Exercise

If you’re serious about increasing your strength, follow this six week training program and you’ll soon be on your way to completing 100 consecutive push ups!

Think there’s no way you could do this? I think you can! All you need is a good plan, plenty of discipline and about 30 minutes a week to achive this goal!

No doubt some of you can already do 50 consecutive push ups, but let’s face it, you’re in a big minority. Most of you reading this won’t even be able to manage 20 pushups. Actually, I’m sure many of you can’t even do 10.
However, it really doesn’t matter which group you fall into. 

If you follow the progressive push ups training program, I’m positive you’ll soon be able to do 100 push ups! CLICK HERE TO READ MORE at 100pushups.com.

What Are You Telling Yourself You Can't Do?

After creating the first drawing I was tempted to give up because I thought I just couldn’t do it. What are you telling yourself you can’t do, just because you didn’t do it well the first time? "Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence." - Calvin Coolidge

I Always Loved Running


I always loved running... it was something you could do by yourself, and under your own power.  You could go in any direction, fast or slow as you wanted, fighting the wind if you felt like it, seeking out new sights just on the strength of your feet and the courage of your lungs.  ~Jesse Owens
