Letters: Celebrating The Push-Up (1 Letter)To the Editor: “An Enduring Measure of Fitness: The Simple Push-Up” (Well, March 11) gave me a lift. I have been doing push-ups all my life, although with less regularity as I get older. Every so often when I feel the lethargy of being a couch potato I will do some push-ups and I feel renewed.
