Did you win the push up competition?
No. One of the boys got 40. I was a little overconfident, so to make it harder for me, I put my toes up on a set of steps and I was already tired from bench presses earlier in the day. I only got 38. I could have squeezed out 40+ if I had just done a normal flat push-up.
It was a positive encounter and got to share the importance of consistency and effort in exercise to help us maintain our younger fitness level as we age.
