So is the planking you're speaking of here the planking I'm thinking of.....where people just lay like a board?

I love Funyuns. They are so gross and rip the roof of your mouth to shreds, but when I start eating them, I can't stop!
It's like they are coated with crack.

Elbows is definitely tougher, but if you're doing it after your push-ups, it may feel easier than trying to do them on your hands! I can always feel it while I'm doing it, but never feel it later on...it has caused me to not be very interested in doing them. I really like to wake up the next day and feel the proof that I whooped up on myself the prior day, gives me motivation!
It's so ridiculously nice, I might go for a second run after work tonight! I went Tuesday night and it was 20, tonight will be over 50!

Kit, this is the first time your avatar has actually moved on my end. As a picture I thought it was great, as a .gif, I can't stop watching! That little furball is my hero.

With Examiners in the building, I haven't had a chance to post (or breathe... or go to the restroom...). I am proud to say I've done my pushups every day. This morning was difficult! I'm getting stronger by the day. Thank you for inspiring me!

Push-ups against an examiner: does it count?

Does it in any way resemble a push up?

And can it be done every day? I hope not...
If so, you might want to unchain them and let them out of the closet before someone comes looking for them!
