Working with heavier weights and now I can almost do a full pushup

[rascalblue]

Just want to toot my own horn a little bit that I have been grabbing heavier dumbbells (12#) for fitness classes, and today I used a 14# and 20# weight ball too.

I am getting stronger. I can almost do a real, full, on the toes toes push up.

Later this summer I want to move up to 15# dumbbells. Yay me. Getting stronger.

@rascalblue I get it! I was on such a high when I realized I could do REAL pushups!!! I have built up to three sets of ten.
Keep working at it!!! You got this!

@habakkukthreenineteen Thanks! Push ups used to be my least favorite exercise. Now, I almost like hand release push ups, and my least favorite exercise is mountain climbers, but I am willing to do them at a slow pace.
