Push-Ups - Incline

Description

Starting Position: Start in the classic push-up position, with the hands placed on an elevated surface beneath the shoulders and both legs straight with the toes on the ground.

Procedure: Keeping your torso stable and hips square to the ground, bend your elbows to lower your chest and hips toward the ground. Push your hands through the surface to move the chest away to return to the start position.

Coaching Key: Keep your body straight by engaging the glutes, torso, and shoulder blades. Keep your elbows 45 degrees from the torso to form an arrow-like shape, and push your chest as far away from your hands as possible. 

Feel It: Working your chest, arms, and torso.
