Handstand Push-Ups Between Benches
How to Do:
Position two benches parallel to each other, leaving enough space between them to accommodate your head during the push-up.
Place the benches close to a sturdy wall for support.
Kick up into a handstand position with your hands placed on the benches, ensuring your head is aligned with the space between them. Your body should be straight, with your feet lightly resting on the wall for balance.
Begin the push-up by bending your elbows and lowering your head between the benches, maintaining control throughout the movement.
Push back up to the starting position by extending your arms fully.
Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, keeping your core engaged and your movements steady.
Benefits:
Handstand Push-Ups Between Benches are an advanced exercise that targets the shoulders, triceps, and upper chest while also improving balance and core stability. The elevated surface allows for a deeper range of motion, increasing muscle activation and strength development. This exercise enhances overhead pressing power and provides a challenging progression for those working towards freestanding handstand push-ups. It’s a great addition for building functional upper-body strength.
