Killer Arms in No Time

A while back I showed you how to shape up your arms in my posts Banish Bingo Wings and So You Want Great Arms 


Today I'll show you how to adapt a single exercise - the good old fashioned push up - to help you tone up your chest, shoulders and the backs of your arms.  These push ups can be performed with either your feet or your knees on the floor.  Maintain a straight body throughout the movement and keep your head slightly forwards of your hands.

1) Narrow Push Ups x 10

For this set your thumbs should almost be touching and you press up with your elbows close to your body.

2) Regular Push Ups x 10

For this set your hands will be shoulder width apart

3) Wide Push Ups x 10

For this set your hands will be placed slightly wider than your body

Time For Some New Running Shoes?

I spotted these running shoes on the counter top of one of my clients.  Notice the melted cheese sandwich effect as the Gorilla Glue oozes out from the repairs to the front of the soles.


It'll work but I reckon if your running shoes get to this state it's time for some new ones.  Ideally you should replace them after around 350-500 miles, depending on your running style.  Once they're worn out they won't be giving you the support you need and this could end up in an injury.


So treat your feet to some fresh sneakers before you find yourself running repairs instead of running the streets...
