Just read the article in that link Killerbee, thanks.

I'd like to point out that doing pushups on blaststraps or rings that have been set up to hang nearly twice as far apart (or more) as shoulder width will simultaneously simulate both of the exercises he refers to. You have to squeeze inward just to support yourself in the up position before doing a pushup. Lower down maintaining approximate shoulder width hand spacing, and squeeze inward as you push up to finish at the top with hands together. Move them back out to shoulder width again just prior to/or as you begin to lower down, and repeat. You might find these to be a real bitch to do at first, so you may want to start off at a gentle incline, then progress to flat, and finally to added resistance as you get stronger.
