Dirk-Jan de Bruin - Health & CrossFit

I haven't been doing much pushups lately. When I started out training, pushups became boring after I could do sets of 100. I just switched to benchprenches.

Trainingers sometimes claim the pushup does hit muscles the benchprench does not, and there has been some research that supports this claim. So it might still be wise to add some pushups to your program.

But variation is also a good way to keep yourself motivated. Doing new things, keeping yourself challenged, not just by hitting higher numbers but also trying new things.

A populair, but quite difficult challenge is the one-arm-pullup.

But one that can be learned quite a lot faster is the one-arm-pushup!

I'll be giving it a try the next few weeks.
