I'm back in action (Ravenclaw Beater) so look out Slytherin scum :P

 

What's the score for Ring pushups? They are hung an inch from the floor and totally brutal. I'm thinking 2 points each...

 

Today I got 36 ring pushups and 45 standard pushups.

Good to have you back.

I think we're playing Gryffindor this week.

The past is only smoke in a dream.

Good to have you back, you're a Chaser against Gryffindor this round :)

Do people approve 2pts for Ring Pushups?

I'm going to have to bow out of the push up PvP for a bit. :(

 

I can't put pressure on the palm of my hand due to pain over my pisiform bone due to overdoing weighted dips, which I had been progressively increasing weight and reps on for a couple of weeks.

 

I couldn't do anything on Monday. I was hoping I would be healed enough to try push ups today... but still hurting. I'm going to rest up for a bit and hopefully rejoin next week!

I'd throw in my 2 cents but I've never done them before, anyone else able to try these and make their evaluation to corroborate Endors pointage?

RAVENCLAWS AND HUFFLEPUFFS

 

It looks like you guys are down to three active players each this match, and whilst you are still fearsome quidditch teams.   What do you think about perhaps recruiting a couple more players for your teams (if you know anyone who might be interested)?  Or reorganising your teams for the next match?   Any suggestions welcome. 

 

Ill try them out tonight. Why would the be more than decline pushups?

      What did you make of the Ring Push-ups in the end?

 

Neurosurgeon scheduled neck surgery and nixed upper body exercises until 6 weeks out from surgery. Surgery tentatively scheduled for jun 16.

     Sorry to hear that ChristArtist :( 

 

     But ultimately the surgery is a good thing.  Get your neck sorted out and come back stronger for it :)
