That's great. I'm jealous. In my gym, if I spent five minutes with my participants sitting on their mats with their hands out in front of them trying to get equal weight on all ten metacarpal heads, half of them would just start doing push-ups the scary unsafe way they've always done them, and the other half would refuse to even try because "their wrists hurt." I think I would have to kick them to get their attention.
