Physical Push-ups

The Physics Teacher, 2003
“Saffar, how many push-ups can you do in 10 seconds?” “I'll show you, T2.” With that exchange, Saffar proceeded to do 15 push-ups as T2 (Terrence Toepker) did the timing. “I think that the upper limit is set by physical principles and not by your strength.” Assuming that you cannot pull yourself down by grabbing the floor, the shortest time down is ...

Push-Up Block [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Large strike-slip fault zones are fundamentally segmented (e.g., the North Anatolian fault zone, Herece and Akay, 2003, Şengör et al., 2005; San Andreas fault zone, Sylvester, 1988, Powell et al., 1993) and have contractional structures (i.e., folds and ...

The Biomechanics of the Push-up

Strength & Conditioning Journal, 2012
SUMMARY THE PUSH-UP IS WIDELY USED BY FITNESS PROFESSIONALS TO DEVELOP UPPER-BODY STRENGTH, POWER, AND LOCAL MUSCULAR ENDURANCE. ALTHOUGH THE LOAD DURING A PUSH-UP IS LIMITED BY AN INDIVIDUAL'S BODYWEIGHT AND ANTHROPOMETRY, MANY BIOMECHANICAL VARIATIONS OF THE EXERCISE CAN BE PERFORMED.

Pushing up

Archiv der Mathematik, 1986
For M a finite group, p a prime and S a Sylow p-subgroup of M, consider the following two properties: (P) no non-trivial characteristic subgroup of S is normal in M; (A) \(\bar M/\Phi(\bar M)\cong L_ 2(p^ n)\) for \(\bar M=M/O_ p(M)\) and some positive integer n.

Quadriplegia caused by push-up exercises

Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery, 1994
This paper describes a case of a 52-year-old male patient with spinal cord injury caused by doing push-up exercises in the prone position. To our knowledge, no previous report has been published describing a case of spinal cord injury caused by push-up exercise. These days, sport is recommended not only to the young but also to older persons.

Simultaneous pushing up

Archiv der Mathematik, 1989
The pushing up problem for a finite group P is the following: If G is a p-constrained group with \(G/O_ p(G)\cong P\) and \(S\in Syl_ p(G)\), then either find a characteristic subgroup of S normal in G, or describe the structure of G. In the paper under review the author handles a certain generalization of this problem.

The Start-up PUSH

2018
This book explores, documents and establishes how to help founders start businesses with the collaboration of local and international resources. An incubator, accelerator or science park all have this goal but provide a variety of foci and support. At a minimum, itߣs important to not only attract entrepreneurs but to have support services that can ...

An Electromyographic Study of the Push-Up for Women

Research Quarterly. American Association for Health, Physical Education and Recreation, 1969
Abstract The problem of this study was to examine, through electromyography, the muscular activity required to perform four types of push-up exercises and to determine the existence of patterns of muscular contractions among them. It involved the triceps brachii, deltoid, pectoralis major, trapezius, serratus anterior, rectus abdominis, and external ...

Push-up Steel Construction

Engineering Journal, 1969
For the past few years a team of researchers, architects and engineers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have directed their efforts at finding methods for reducing the cost of multistory steel-frame construction. This research, which has been sponsored by the United States Steel Corporation, was initially directed to examine the structural ...
