Push Up Safety Technique
Push Up Safety
Ankle-Hip-Shoulder Alignment
When doing a proper push up, you need to have your ankles, hips and shoulders lined up in a straight line. Alignment is for safety as well as getting full range of motion. Full range of motion is the most effective way to do a push up.
Hands Placed Shoulder Width Apart
When doing a proper push up, you need to have your wrists, elbows and shoulders lined up in a straight line. Your hands should be shoulder width apart. This position will allow you to reach the most muscles in the upper body. In order to get the greatest benefit you need to touch your chest on the bar on every repetition. This will give you full range of motion, emphasizing the Pectorals, Triceps and several back muscles.
Proper Foot Position
Your feet should be placed shoulder width apart. We also recommend using rubberized shoes to prevent slippage.
Full Range of Motion
Completing technically correct Push ups and getting full range of motion, will yield the most dramatic results.
Close Grip Tricep Push Up
The Triceps Muscle is used for extension of your arm or to put it simply- the back of your arm. This is a great exercise if your goal is to tone your arms. By concentrating on the back of your arms you can increase the size of the Tricep muscle creating a more toned body and arms.
