This is very inspirational, especially for women. Many women feel that because they lack upper body strength they will never be able to do a push up. You have shown in your video that if you practice push ups, you can achieve them. I find that it helps to learn push ups on a bench or stability ball when you are starting out. :) Thanks for posting the video on push ups. This is very inspirational, especially for women.

They are great for the triceps. I can't do as many of those, but am working on them. 15-20 is fantastic! You should video yourself. I think being able to critique your form is helpful. It's so hard to know how you look otherwise.<br /><br />Andrew, thanks for the compliments! DH always said my legs are my best feature. Now with all the kettlebell work, deadlifts, and squats I do, they're even better than before! Grace, if your hands are just under your shoulders, those are close grip.

Excellent form for your 30 set. Well done. BTW your leg muscles really pop out and show great definition in this video. Looking good leg muscles (for a Mom)! Liz, Thanks for posting this.

I need to take a video of myself doing pushups too to see my form. I can do pushups from the toes but my hands are place a little closer together than yours. Could I be doing the close-grip version? I'm not sure! I can do 15-20 consecutive now but like you, I started with two!<br /><br />But seing these two videos, you must be so proud of your amazing body transformation!! Great stuff Liz!
