Let’s talk Push-Ups 👊🏻
One of my all-time favourite exercises and for good reason!
Not only are there so many variations to keep challenging yourself, but the benefits are unreal 👇🏼
✨ Benefits of Push-Ups:
• Increase upper body strength, core strength & stability
• Improve stamina and muscular endurance
• Transfer over to other lifts, helping you get stronger in all upper body movements
• Improve shoulder health and joint stability
• Strengthen the entire kinetic chain from wrists → shoulders → core → glutes
• Enhance posture and body alignment
• Build functional strength for everyday movements
• Burn more calories by engaging multiple muscle groups
• Boost balance, coordination, and mind–muscle connection
• Easy to scale for ANY fitness level — no equipment needed!
Whether you’re a beginner or advanced, push-ups will always deliver results💪🏼

How to Perform⬇️
•Position your hands so that when you're at the bottom of the movement, your arms flare out at a 45-degree angle and your forearms are vertical.
•Take a deep breath before you lower yourself and touch your chest to the floor before coming back up.
•Pause halfway on the way up and down for 1-second.
