Random, my random for a horse: Women in arms

As you are about to experience, I often digress for no apparent reason. Now, can someone actually digress from an inexistent topic ? I sure can. So without further ado, I give you: randomness ! I was dared no later than not yesterday but the day before, to discuss Battlestar Galactica (which I've actually never watched, I know, shame on me) on my blog.

[Note: I would like emphasize how "discussing" really means "writing to myself on a computer screen and putting up pretty pictures of pretty ladies instead of doing stuff that needs to be done, like, say, laundry"].

My daring friend was wondering whether doing push ups with your feet up was really harder than regular oh-so-easy push ups. The vital question was brought up by the sight of Katee "Starbuck" Sackhoff effortlessly lifting her body while resting her feet on a bed. Mmmmm bed. Sorry. Digression. Back to push ups.
Why bother experimenting painful, traumatizing moves , when you can ask a specialist? Katee Sackoff, is it better with your feet up ? (what? I'm talking about working out in a bed...)
Ok, Starbuck has left for coffee. Bwaaaahahhaha. No, really, she's just too busy boxing. Speaking of boxing, I seem to have Hilary Swank on the phone, willing to give her opinion on training. She says it's hard, but rewarding. Plus the result is pretty.
Where were we? Oh yeah, boxing. Other gloved push-up experts might want to jump into the discussion, like the foxy Girlfight - Michelle Rodriguez :
Boxing has never looked so hot. But I digress again.
Aaaaannd back to push-ups. In terms of physics, tractions are significantly harder than push ups. You have to use much more strength to counter a stronger gravity. Geek note - no help from any counteracting, opposite force coming from the feet up - End geek note. So tractions then.
In a cell? Alright. I give you Queen Linda Hamilton in T2.
Riiiiiiiight. She doesn't want to discuss tractions. Or anything but evil silvery schmeltzing robots from the future... Now I'm sure someone who's been in outer space, who can sport a machine gun like no other and resurrected a bunch of times does. Yes, Ellen Ripley ?
Nop. Not talking basketball, unless it's WNBA. Or Eva Longoria.

In the end, no one here to explain the difficulty of push ups with feet up ? Sad. I understand you not taking my word for it. So go easy on yourselves. If like me, you aim at wearing the sacred tank top decently, showing off perfectly outlined biceps, start with a little running. Like Jessica Biel.
I suddenly feel like working out...
