Resistance Band Advent Calendar Challenge
Day 19/24
Green for chest. A for advanced! 😳🫣 And to the song of … “Spider-Man, Spider-Man, pushes up what Spidey can…” 🕷️🦸♀️💪👍🏽👏
10 REPETITIONS
How’s is everyone doing? Have you and your resistance bands survived so far? 5 days to go!
Hi CBDB that was probably the hardest of these exercises that I’ve done😳 I pretty soon stopped trying to sing the Spider-Man song to myself and concentrated on finishing! 🥵💪
This one just didn't happen AT ALL 😵 However, on a more positive note, I have nearly caught up all the sessions that took a back burner while my poor Bordeaux, Colonel, developed bloat and needed emergency surgery AND the ruddy boiler broke down right in the middle of the freezing cold weather .................oh, and the car broke down too, so hopefully that's the three calamities done and dusted now!!!
Right, now back to concentrating on this challenge 💪💪💪
💪💪💪 Yes, this is a mighty one, possibly the hardest we will do?
I have tried and failed miserably twice now, so this is another one that I'm just going to have to admit has beaten me 😱
Well, just trying it will have worked your muscles that bit more, so I’d say, “well done!”
Omg! I think my mind just filed this under "impossible" yesterday morning - and I promptly forgot to try it 🤣 So watching a video on push-ups just now - I remembered. And tried this a tiny bit. Instead of doing the full push-up, I just tried to focus on my scapula moving. Still, this was HARD!
The YouTube algorithm presented this video to me, so I have no idea of the person's credentials (yet... I'll check them out shortly...): youtu.be/rsf4xmIG4FI
The trainer is called Cori Lefkowith - and I am not finding anything about her qualifications, as so often with these kind of YouTube folks... 🤷♀️
that’s a great find. I’ve recently added some scapular strengthening moves to my usual stretches, e.g half plank or wall scapular push-up. And they seemed to have helped with my upper back pain that I had when rowing.
Before I didn’t even know what a scapular meant! 🤣🤣
ok, I cheated a bit with these … or rather … adapted. Half push-ups using a bench, but still doing the Spider-Man. And lightest of resistance bands.
