Slimming Down Dad Weekly Challenge: 250 Pike Pushups

Written by Walt in Health

A few weeks back I was talking to my good friend Jerry Cruz and he told me about a Slim Down Challenge that he signed up for at his local Anytime Fitness. One of the aspects that I found most interesting was that he was participating in a weekly challenge.

I liked the concept so much that I decided to borrow it and incorporate it into my November ProjectOpens in a new tab.. Since the Slimming Down Dad 10K Virtual Fun Run was so much fun, I thought I’d open this up to the readers as well.

The premise is simple. Every Monday throughout the month of November I will post a weekly exercise challenge. All of the exercises will be body-weight only so that everyone can follow along at home. Feel free to modify the exercise as needed to increase / decrease difficulty to meet your needs.

Weekly Challenge - Week 2

To participate, all you have to do is perform 250 Pike Pushups (YouTube demonstration video below) between now and next Monday. Feel free to tell us how you’re doing on the Slimming Down Dad Facebook PageOpens in a new tab. or by using the #SlimmingDownDadChallenge hashtag on Social Media.

My name is Walt White and I've been riding motorcycles on and off since my early twenties. After more than a decade away from the sport, I came back - and I've been making up for lost time ever since. Based in Southeast Pennsylvania, I write and create videos about real motorcycle ownership: the bikes I ride, the gear I test, the roads I explore, and the community I've found along the way. I ride a 2022 Yamaha MT-09 SP and a 2023 Kawasaki Ninja 400, and I try to give you the honest take you'd get from a friend rather than a press release. I'm also a husband, dad to three girls, and a pitbull owner - which keeps life interesting off the bike too.
