And one of my other patented isometric stretches that I RAVE about, and rightly so in the book on isometrics ...

And sitting down, for that matter, hehe.

Dont worry.

I got all of those things done, and passed with flyin gcolors, but it felt different. Hehe.

Now . . . what do I mean?

Well, for starters, most people look at me like I’m crazy when I talk about pushups working the whole body.

For some reason, the bros have got it into their head that its a chest workout, and nothing else.

BIG mistake.

And a misconception that grows by the day rather than REDUCE.

Pushups dont work just he upper body and core though my friend.

They work the legs!

And anyone who has done Hindu pushups in high numbers can testify to this truism.

Now, believe it or not, same thing for HANDSTAND pushups!

Take the legs away and tell me how easy – or tough – the same exercise becomes.

Or do a 100 squats like I did at the right speed, and try jumping straight into handstand pushups, and tell me if your legs dont quiver like jelly the first time. Hehe.

In fact, this is yours truly writing it.

The bodyweight exercise GURU!

The guy that can 100 ‘s of them per workout.

And yet, there is always something to learn my friend.

And THIS email should come across as caution for those that want to jump straight back into it. Do so, but with caution. If you haven’t jumped off “el coucho” for ages, for one, then it might be better to start off with mild walks, and then, and only THEN get to my stuff.

Believe me, I dont want you injured or out of reckoning as young Gama was.

Unless that sort of thing turns you on, hehe.

Anyway … thats the point.

Pushups DO work the entire body my friend.

Find out how right here – Pushup Central.

Best,

Rahul Mookerjee

PS – And again, thats why I haven’t put out an advanced course on isometric workouts or stretching (advanced) as yet. Write back and let me know if you want one, or two, or both, or all, and we’ll see what we can conjure up here, hehe.
