Wednesday 16 December 2009: PU DROP SETS
PUSH-UP DROP SETS
Today we'll be applying a popular weightlifting technique to a bodyweight exercise. The concept is simple: perform a set of hard push-ups, then immediately perform a set of an easier push-up variation, then immediately perform a third set of an even easier version. This workout is tough; do not underestimate it. Keep the reps low, especially early in the session, to avoid burnout.
Complete as many drop sets as possible in twenty minutes.

OK, I will try out this stuff and then I will convey you my feedback.
You're not kidding!
Went for advanced, managed to do 5 sets of 5 reps on each exercise.
Am now going for a lie-down!
