FitnessTracker recommends incline push-ups for anyone easing into push-up training or rehabbing from injury. Elevating the hands makes this move accessible without compromising strength gains.
Instructions
- Place your hands on a bench or platform, slightly wider than your shoulders.
- Step your feet back until your body forms a straight line from head to heels.
- Slowly bend your elbows to lower your chest toward the edge of the surface.
- Push yourself back to the starting position by extending your arms.
- Focus on a steady tempo and good form throughout.
