BENEFITS OF PUSH-UPS
Go on a plank position – your hands at chest level and positioned slightly wider
than shoulder-width apart. Your feet should be hip-width apart and parallel to each
other—not turning inward or outwardly. Your hips, shoulders, and head should be
in line. The hips shouldn’t drop down toward the floor or be elevated.
Before getting started, squeeze your glutes and engage your core – bring your
belly button toward your spine and keep your abdominals tight.
Inhale as you slowly bend your elbows and lower yourself to the floor, until your
elbows are at a 90-degree angle.
Exhale as you contract your chest muscles and push your body up through your
hands to the starting position without locking your elbows.
Keep your core tight throughout the entire movement and your body in a straight
line from head to toe.
Perform the desired number of repetitions based on your goals, strength, and
ability.
