The 100 Push Up Challenge Week 16

The 100 push up challenge week 16, we introduce another fresh variation to the workout to take it up a notch. This weekly challenge is running throughout the year going from simple to progressively more difficult as we go.

Yo Yo Yo!

It’s week 16 of the 100 Push Up Challenge.

The weather is getting better here in the UK and I’m feeling excited about training outside in the sun.

Spring/Summer is always a big training push for the lads wanting to get in great shape for holidays, beaches and pool parties (obviously).

And here in Sunny England, all it takes is for the clouds to part slightly and everyone is getting their prawn white bodies out to soak up a bit of Vitamin D.

If you haven’t been keeping up with the challenge, don’t worry, you can find them all on the 100 Push Up Challenge page.

But remember if you don’t join the challenge then you will end up missing a few and you won’t make it through the year.

So sign up to the challenge now and get the new challenge emailed to you each week – so you never miss a session!

That’s enough rambling, let’s get into the workout.

The 100 Push Up Challenge Week 16

The Workout

Set 1 – 20 x Bear Crawl Push Ups

Set 2 – 20 x Raised Push Ups

Set 3 – 20 x Stability Push Ups

Set 4 – 20 x Grasshopper Push Ups

Set 5 – 20 x Pike Push Ups

The Plyometric push ups will be a bit of a shock to the system if you’ve never tried to push hard enough to get off the ground, but once you get down to the deep push ups you will have other things to worry about!

Bear Crawl ‘Push Ups’

Bear Crawl is a common ‘animal flow’ exercise. These movements are a very creative way to train, and great for developing mobility and coordination.

It is similar to Spiderman push ups, if you can remember them form a few weeks ago, except you are actually going to walk yourself across the floor as you do reps.

Start in a normal push up.

Tak a step forwards with opposite hands and legs, and lower yourself to the ground for a push up.

Come up and step forwards again and do another push up.

Carry on across your floor for 20 reps.

This creates a kind of crawl as you move across the floor doing your reps as you go.
