Push-ups are one of the simplest, least expensive, and yet most effective exercises to build a strong upper body and midsection, provided you do them correctly. By perfecting your technique, you can actually target different muscle groups, including not only your chest muscles but also your abs. Another boon: there are so many ways to vary the intensity and level of difficulty of a push-up – it's an exercise you can keep in your repertoire more or less indefinitely without hitting a plateau. I personally do 25 pushups twice a day. Time1 recently shared six ways to get the most out of your push-ups, which I'll summarize below. I'll also include a wide variety of tips and tricks, from beginners' to advanced, to help you optimize and grow with this exercise. #teachingiswhatido #rehabtrainercertified #functionaltrainingspecialist #fitnessjourney #personaltrainer #gymlife #fitspo #instagram #crossfit #movementlifestyle #pushups #follow #fitnessmotivation #wednesdaywisdom #nevergiveuponyou #dzmr @fitnessbyrajiv #makeyourbodyyourmachine #transformationcoach #formcheck #instadaily (at Mumbai, Maharashtra)
