Donna Wilkinson: One of my favorite ways to do pushups though, are with the balls. Any kind of ball will work. Basketball, soccer ball, probably not a softball, but something bigger, if you got medicine balls that also works. Anytime you add a moving ball or something, you are going to add a lot of core work and force all your stability muscles to crank in. So that makes these one of my favorite pushups. What we are going to do is just get your hands nice comfortable on the balls, same body position coming all the way down. Now, you are working a whole lot more lats, back.

We got our ten. So that gives you three of pushups you can do very simply and some of you might want to just build up to, just start on the floor. If you are advanced, do the triangle pushups. If you have got some balls, you can use to stick right underneath your hands then do that.

One final way that will also do is by raising your feet up, you put more pressure onto your upper body. So, we are going to do our last set with our feet raise. Now, you can do this on your couch, on a step, whatever you feel comfortable with putting your feet on that will not move and slide out from underneath you. We are just using this box as an example to get my feet a little higher than my upper body, keeping the core tight and coming down. So that concludes our pushup series.

Just a few different variation things, you can do. I like to do these sets to fatigue, so do as many as you can do till your body is completely fatigued. Take a rest; do another set, maybe incorporate a few other different sets into your workout.
