Push-up
Use your bodyweight in a controlled horizontal push.
How to do it
- Start on hands and toes with your torso steady.
- Lower your chest by bending your elbows within your controlled range.
- Press back up without letting your hips sag.
Form check
Stop the set when you can no longer keep a steady body line.
Make it easier
Raise your hands on a stable bench.
Move within a comfortable range and keep breathing. Stop if a movement causes pain or you feel unwell. Ask a qualified trainer for help with unfamiliar equipment.
