Well challengers... today you will be introduced to the PYRAMID.

Essentially we climb up in repetitions, then we go back down. I must admit, I am designing most of these workouts for selfish reasons: my trouble areas! ;)

8 tricep push ups See modifications here.
8 tricep dips
8 one arm tricep push ups each side

12 tricep push ups
12 tricep dips
12 one arm tricep push ups

15 tricep push ups

12 one arm tricep push ups

8 tricep push ups

I did this workout last night, and my arms are pretty sore today! GOOD LUCK! :)

um, ouch. I just did these and I'll be lucky if I can lift my arms to wash my hair now!

You have the most kick-ass workouts. I still love that ab one from last week. I might do that one again :) I must be a sucker for pain!

Did this yesterday after my run. How can such a small body part...be so flabby and hurt so much?

Robin said...

This is awesome. I did a run this morning but tomorrow at the gym I will definitely do the triceps workout! Thanks Amy!

Suzanne said...

This almost killed me. Seriously - it made me think all the fitness progress I'd made in the past 4 months went down the drain.

Very very hard ! But done.

Robin said...

Ok the tricep workout hurt so much I couldn't ride my bike to work this morning...thanks though...why do we torture ourselves? Because we LOVE IT

Seriously, the pushups (also known as chataranga) are the reason that I DESPISE sun salutations in yoga!

I know they'll look better for it, though!
