Update: Body Rock

I just wanted you to know....we mentioned "body rock" to one of our Krav Maga instructors...the one we like BEST who works us the hardest. And she took a look. And today, she borrowed some of the moves and built them into our warm-up. Fan-freakin-tastic...not so fantastic was the "evil eye" we received from a few of the other members of our class who were aware that we had tipped off the instructor. They knew where the new material was coming from and they weren't so happy about it.
Tomorrow, I'm really gonna feel it. I didn't know there were so many ways to do a push-up. Oh, and while on the subject of the push-up, did you know that many fitness experts are currently suggesting that the push-up replace the sit-up? Yep! Turns out that "plank position" is super duper good for the abs and the stability required for the perfect push-up will build your core muscles. I still like sit-ups...a lot. But, I could find a new love for push-ups. Our friends over at body rock seem to agree as they are the inspiration for the new variety of push-ups our Krav instructor treated us to this afternoon. So, once again, I'm pluggin' the Body Rock here....and encouraging you to do some push-ups....even if you have to start 'em on your knees and work toward being on your toes. It's that plank position that matters. Go get 'em tiger!
