Push-Up
How to Do:
Starting Position: Begin in a plank position with your hands placed slightly wider than shoulder-width apart, directly under your shoulders. Keep your feet together and your body in a straight line from head to heels.
Form: Lower your body towards the floor by bending your elbows, keeping them at a 45-degree angle to your body. Maintain a tight core and keep your back straight.
Return: Push through your palms to raise your body back up to the starting position, fully extending your arms.
Benefits:
Push-ups are a compound bodyweight exercise that primarily targets the chest (pectoralis major), shoulders (deltoids), and triceps. They also engage the core, back, and even the legs for stability. This exercise helps to build upper body strength, improve endurance, and develop functional fitness. Push-ups are versatile, can be modified for various skill levels, and are effective for overall muscle conditioning and posture improvement.
