Awesome bodyweight training

I've been experimenting with some new training with bodyweight. Basically I start off in the familiar pushup position, and every rep, I move the position of my arms, so go from a wide grip to close grip, to backward grip forward, one arm out. But this way I'm working so many muscles in the upper body. sometimes I walk across the room one arm by one. I know this looks stupid when you do it, but it does so much for my upper body.

What do you think?

I am a huge fan of Body Weight routines!! Pushups are right at the top of my list. Along with moving your hand position try moving your feet. Raise them on a bench and try eventually for an assisted handstand pushup. Try doing them with your hands on the side of a medicine ball. Put a 25 lb plate on your back and do your walking.

I do alot of different BW stuff sometimes as a warmup to the weights or just a full routine.

Lately I've found alot of benefits from punching a heavy bag as a form of intense cardio. Good for stress and pumping oxy to the muscles.
 
You are working the same three muscles regardless of hand/arm position. Triceps, chest & shoulders. You can target these three differently, but you are not going to incorporate any other muscle groups with push ups.

Dont slow down, just set your mind to it, move forward and in time you'll see yourself in a better shape. Personally, from my own experience, seeing myself toner only gives me more encouragement to keep moving forward.
