TRAINING TIP TUESDAY: PUSH-UPS

✅ Do’s
Hands: Place them slightly wider than shoulder-width, roughly under your shoulders.

Head/neck: Keep your head neutral; look slightly ahead of you rather than craning your neck.

Body: Keep your head, shoulders and hips in one straight line.

Core: Brace your abs and squeeze your glutes.

Elbows: Keep them in an arrow position, not flared straight out.

Lowering: Bend your elbows and lower your chest toward the floor in a controlled manner.

Bottom position: Aim for your chest to get close to the floor while maintaining your body position.

Pushing: Press through your hands and return to the starting position without losing your alignment.

Breathing: Inhale as you lower; exhale as you push up.

❌ Avoid

Letting your hips sag toward the floor.

Piking your hips high into the air.

Flaring your elbows out to 90°.

Leading with your chin instead of your chest.

Doing very shallow reps just to increase your count.

Letting your shoulders shrug toward your ears.

Rushing the movement, quality reps are more valuable than fast reps.
