Do you think we're dumb. There's no such thing as a camp for boots. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

I'm imagining a sparkly Prada tent, and maybe an L.L. Bean pavilion, and under the Big Top... GUCCI! Whee

I got a C once in HS and my baseball coach made me stay after school and do 500 push ups. It took a few hours but I got them done. 18 years later I would bet I couldn't do 20. laugh out loud

Pushups are a terrible exercise because it's very very difficult to balance the load evenly between both arms.

Most people end up using their dominant arm way more than the other.

AND very often they engaged their shoulders and pivot on their weaker arm in a rotating motion. This leads to the upper and lower chest being unbalanced on the dominant arm.

Sure, but they are a good, simple exercise for those with no access to a gym. There are many different hand/arm positions that can isolate particular areas of the chest. Plus, it works your deltoids/shoulders too.
