"Hello there, have we met before? The name sounds familiar. Agam, I have yet to see the exercise that works out BOTH at the same time, though I know push-ups work the pectorals and the back muscles, just to name a few... (Pushups are probably one of…"

"Ben Hur I see how the wide range of exercises will help me as a whole. Some dc's require equipment so I may not be able to fully complete each dc. But what I can't do I will make up in conventional exercises which cover the same muscle…"

"no problemo"

"which one? what I mean is that you should be doing what we post daily, the variety will help you more than you know."

"yeah, I found alot of people who said 10x10 helped their score. Thanks!"

"No doubt. On maximum exertion, I could crank out about 60 or so push-ups before I began practicing my pull-ups. Now I can get to sixty and consistently. I'll definitely try that out. The dc's are really helpful too. I'm starting to…"
