Upper Body Strength Training
This is a very good workout for your triceps, abdominals and even your chest. I have chin up racks at my gym with gymnastic rings on each bar. Lower the rings so they are about a foot off the ground. Grab the rings and get into a push up position. Make sure you keep your elbows in tight to the body for balance. Do your push ups.... lower yourself so that your hands are even with your chest and then push back up.
Be sure and exhale as you are pushing back up and keep your abs tight. Keeping your abs tight should not be a problem as they will be engaged as you are tryign to maintain your balance.
Once you master this one you can have a partner hold your feet at waist level for added intensity. You can also place your feet on a large excercise ball for added ab work.
To work your chest more simply open your arms so that you have a "wide grip."
Remember NO QUIT....
