The key to being able to do more push-ups is starting slow and continuing to practice. I’ll say it again, the key to getting better at push-ups is practice! 😉
If you’re not ready to start with a standard push-up (that’s okay!), you can start with this push-up modifications.
WALL PUSH-UPS
Incline Push-Ups!
By elevating the body off the floor, this will give the chest and shoulders extra support!
We're talking push-up form today. And I am all about perfecting the form to keep the body happy and healthy!
Start in a high plank. Modification, you can take it to your knees!
The biggest problem I see in push-ups is bowing the elbows out to the side. This creates strain in the neck and trap area (which we want to avoid).
TIP: bring the elbows close to the sides and use more triceps in your push-ups!
Dropping all the way down to the ground, chest to floor, using the triceps! Plus you'll love the way your arms look!
