Exercise of the Week: Band Resisted Push Up Drop Set

I've seen drop sets methods for push ups with chains or weight plates.  Working out on your own it's pretty tough, actually may be impossible, to place weights or chains on your back and then remove them as the set goes on.  So here's another method using the Super Bands.  Start the set with a once inch band and go to failure.  Replace the one inch band with a half inch band and go to failure again.  Remove the 1/2 inch band and finish up the set with no resistance.



Drop sets are a method that can be used on a high rep day or at the end of an upper body workout as a finisher or to get some more volume in.
