Yo Yo Yo!
In the 100 push up challenge week 19, we introduce the Raised Pike Push Up into the mix. This is a weekly challenge running all Year, getting progressively more difficult, from basic to super extreme!
Week 19 of the Challenge is here and this week we are bringing in another complex push up variation – The Raised Pike Push Up.
This is a lot more difficult than it looks. You need a decent amount of shoulder mobility to really pull it off perfect, so don’t beat yourself up if they aren’t on point.
To catch up on all of the challenges so far this year, check out the 100 Push Up Challenge page here.
The 100 Push Up Challenge Week 19
The Workout
Set 1 – 20 x Raised Pike Push Ups
Set 2 – 20 x Scorpion Push Ups
Set 3 – 20 x Clap Push Ups
Set 4 – 20 x Bear Crawl Push Ups
Set 5 – 20 x Raised Push Ups
The raised pike push ups are really going to set the tone for this workout, because they take time to get through they will slow you down a lot before you get a chance to do the clap push ups! Good Luck!
Raised Pike Push Ups
Raised pike push ups are basically regular old pike push ups with your feet raised.
You can use a chair, your sofa or a coffee table to raise you off the ground, what is important is that you can do reps with good form.
Start in a raised push up position, walk your hands in towards your support, keeping your legs straight.
Form this raised pike position smash out your reps as normal, making sure you are creating a triangle with your head and hands at the bottom of each rep.
