Performing Shoulder Salute on Veterans Day

It’s hard to believe a year has passed by since I made the pledge to do a one-arm push-up. I’m happy to say I was able to perform my special “shoulder salute” today as part of a local Veterans Day program.

Just wanted to share a few aging well lessons I’ve learned from training for one-arm push-ups…

A one-arm push-up is much easier on the body than running 100 miles (Running the Cascade Crest 100 was my 40th year goal.)
If you make a plan and consistently follow it with action and faith, you will succeed.
Our bodies like to be strong—fit muscles just move better!
Push-ups are definitely one of the best ways to tone your arms and strengthen your core.

Thanks to all of you who took my push-up pledge. I salute you!
