2016 Jan OS Week 9 - core and comp

AnnSloan

Running late on getting this started...hello to those of us still playing the core/comp game!!

Let's keep up the work.....have a great week. 

Al Truscott

With my broken toe, I am re-amping this segment of the OS. BUT! I can't rest weight on my toe, so I have to switch to push-up from the knee.

And I can't do front plank - anybody have a suggestion for what to substitute for that - just do another set of front raises? Down a one-legged plank is harder than it sounds.

Derrek Sanks

Al, have you tried a pyramid plank. Or if you have a low bench/chair/box/stack of books, you can put your ankles/lower legs on it with your feet hanging off the back edge. ?? You might need padding to protect your shins, depending on what you use.

Leslie Knight

Flip over and do it abs up...on your hands or elbows.

David Howard

If no bench/raised knees you can do the (SP?) Chatarunga style from knees. Start as if doing a tricept pushup from knees...just stop at botom-2" from touching your nose...get a good pelvic tuck...and hold for time.
