Simple Changes Bring Super Results!

Sometimes it's as simple as a small hand movement that changes the focus of your exercise.

Take the push-up. Hands about shoulder width apart, you work out the arms, chest, and back. What if you want a super triceps exercise?

Bring the hands together with the forefingers and the thumbs of each hand touching. When you do your pushup, put your nose right in the center of the triangle.

See the difference?! Your triceps are getting an extra tough workout.

Try some variations like hands wide, 1-handed pushups (good luck on that one) and so on. Be a little creative and watch the muscles grow.
