Push-Up
Hold a rigid plank and lower your chest to the floor, then press back up to straight arms.
How to do it
- Hands just outside shoulder width
- Body stays in one straight line from head to heels
- Elbows about 45 degrees from your sides
- Chest touches, then press to full lockout
Watch out for
- Hips sagging or piking
- Flared elbows
- Half reps
Make it easier
Elevate your hands on a bench or box. The higher the hands, the easier it is.
