How to do a classic push-up?

The movement is performed by:

Additionally, it works:

  • the abdomen, glutes, and legs (stabilize the posture)

Starting position:

Assume a front support position with your feet hip-width apart. Keep your elbows straight. Head, torso, hips, and legs in a straight line.

Movement: Bending your elbows, lower your torso just above the floor. Return to the starting position. Repeat.

Directions: Feet hip-width apart. Body in a straight line. Abdominal muscles contracted.
