Staggered Elevated Pushups

I love a good variation of an old classic, and what's more classic than a pushup?!
One of my favorite variations is a staggered elevated pushup.
(I promise it sounds scarier than it really is!)
You start with one arm on the floor, and one arm elevated on something.
This can be a step, a stair, a medicine ball, a buso ball, a stack of books . . . you get the idea!
Do a number of these on one side, then switch sides to even it out.
Easy Peasy!

Here's a Pyramid Challenge:
8R (right arm elevated)
8L (left arm elevated)
4R
4L
2R
2L
4R
4L
8R
8L
Rest when needed.

ENJOY!
