Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

The hundred pressup challenge - anyone up for it?

Week 1 day one for me - decided to do the easiest level as I only managed 6 on the test, and starting with 7 ,7,5,4 sounded scary!

But actually managed 4, 3, 2, 2 and then 5 so pleased with that. Full press ups too:-)

Hey quick question - I'm starting tomorrow but not sure which form should I use. I tend to do my push ups with palms quite wide but some people do with palms closer to the body, more of a tricep push up...Any suggestions?

I think a traditional stance is hands slightly wider than shoulder width, any wider and it is very difficult and any narrower (as you say) affects triceps more
