30 day shred/exercise question

i want to get into the 30 shred again, just to tone up a bit. but my elbow is such a mess from breaking and this nerve compression that there is no way it will support me doing pushups.

anyone know of some alternate moves i can do for those parts? i feel like i’ve asked this before, but cant remember.

Yes, but you’d need resistance bands. Do you have any?

I was thinking resistance bands, too. MUCH easier on the upper body than pushups, as far as needing to support weight goes.

RYN: They really are very helpful. Pushups work the chest, triceps, shoulders, back & core. You can do exercises that will engage the same muscles that will be easier on your wrists/forearms but you’ll need some bands to help. Are you able to lean on your elbows? Like, be in the top of the pushup position but on your elbows instead of your wrists. That will help your core as well. If you get somebands let me know and I will send you some exercises you can do with them.
