Push-ups are a weakness of mine which makes them one of my favourite exercises. Who’d thought! It’s actually a really effective upper body exercise as well as being a component of my annual physical fitness test for work. Thanks to Eric Cressey I’m now going to be able to perform it more effectively without concern for aggravating my old and new shoulder injuries. For those of you who may not be familiar with him or his work he wrote Shoulder Savers I, II & III. I’ve been following him and his advice since before and after both my shoulder surgeries as a preventative measure. His qualifications are impressive and it takes a lot to impress me let me tell you. If you’re an injured athlete then he’s definitely your man, but unfortunately he lives in America. Oh well, you can’t win them all but thankfully we have the internet so near enough is good enough for me.
Eric posted this video last week over on his blog. I learnt a lot from it and thought that you might too. Let me know what you think by leaving a comment.
