Push Ups

Primary Muscles: shoulders, chest, back of arms

  • Lean over the ball and walk out using your hands, fingers pointed forward
  • The level of difficulty is determined by how far you walk out on your hands. Easy to difficult: thighs, knees, shins, toes
  • Keep a neutral spine, head in line with your back, hands under your shoulders and elbows slightly bent – this is your starting position
  • Lower your body, breathing in, elbows a 90 degree angle to your shoulders
  • Return to starting position, breathing out
  • The further out from your shoulders you place your hands the more intense the workout on your chest
