I have recently gone to doing planks on my forearms with my hands clenched in fists. My lats are super engaged.
Also splash this in as well...it's tough to lower your pelvis before your feet! Go to 2 min mark Mini plank hold Elise Badone https://youtu.be/JtW98uu7JlY My pushups are all on raised surfaces now. Or I do the plank on forearms. If I never make it to the floor before I croak then I wasn't made to, lol. (Having my hands on dumbbells or anything like that just hurts my hands not my wrists. )

I did my first Peloton ride--a 45 minute 90's Country ride. OMG--I loved it! So much better than the indoor cycling DVDs I've done (Cathe, Mindy Mylrea, Spinning). Mainly because of the music. It featured the original songs sung by the original artists. When I was able to catch my breath I found myself singing along (in my head 'cause once my voice cracked my singing $ucked big time ). And the trainer (Hannah Corbin) was adorable and encouraging throughout. Since I don't have a Peloton I ignored her numbered resistance and cadence cues, and just increased/decreased resistance when called for and pedaled to the beat of the music. I finished with one of the many 5 minute post-ride stretches.
ManleyM: I can see throwing the P90X workouts in as a 3-day split week but not as an actual program. When it comes to long programs, STS has spoiled me unfortunately. I might do Body Beast one day since the workouts change from Build to Bulk. Still Steppin' is one of my favorite Christi workouts. (Step Heaven is my favorite.) ChelePA: Double step uses two steps. Here's an example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xjppb6zjyk
