Published in
1 min readAug 25, 2016
This is one of the best workouts for your chest, shoulder, and triceps. Even better, there is no need of any extra equipment or facility to perform the movement. You can simply do it everywhere at any time.
Here is how to perform a full push-up:
- Have your hand palm on the floor at your shoulder width, get into a straight-arm plank position with a straight body.
- Make sure your body is straight here, without lifting or sinking your glutes too much.
- Next, bend your elbow backwards in order to get into the lower push-up position.
- Remember not to flare your elbow out in the process. Always bring your elbow close to your body and point to the back.
- Then, push your body back up by straightening your arm to get back into the straight arm plank position as one rep.
Perform 10 to 15 repetitions for multiple sets every day.
