Wide Push-ups

A fantastic variation of a traditional push-up that incorporates more chest and less tricep. Be careful to not compromise the shoulder joint.
Start
Wide Push-ups
  1. Begin on your hands and knees, placing your hands on the floor slightly wider than shoulder-width apart, palms flat.
  2. Place your hands directly beneath your shoulders (not forward).
  3. Extend your legs straight, resting on your toes. Compress your abs. Stiffen your torso so that your back forms a straight line from the top of your head to your heels.
  4. Bend your elbows and lower your body until your nose or chest touches the floor.
  5. Push yourself back to your starting position.
