2. If your class does both regular and judo pushups, listen to the class when sensei announces judo pushups. If your class is anything like mine, you will hear a few groans. It's not that they are harder. They're not. But they do challenge a different group of muscles, and they also challenge balance and coordination.
Here's another "effective" push up we did in Judo class: the finger tips touching (of both hands) with your elbows out to the side. Does a real number on your triceps.!
