I love the plank!
This move was just okay. I'd rather just do planks and regular push ups
Pros - great exercise for both strength and cardio. Three sets of 10-15 reps with each arm will definitely raise your heart rate!!
Cons - this is not an exercise for beginners.
um wow definitely not for the beginner... i could barely manage 10 reps... still an awesome exercise
Feels great. Perfect for someone like me who is not comfortable with classic push-ups.
Holy Moly........First time to exercise....I'm so out of shape but I got these done today.
