How to Incline Push Up

Starting Position

1. Raise your hands above the floor and proceed.

2. Engage your hips and core to keep your body in a straight line.

Proper Form

1. Please lower down until just before your chest touches.

2. At this time, your forearms should be perpendicular to the floor.

3. Engage your chest and return to the starting position.

Breathing Technique

Inhale when you bend your arms, and exhale when you push your arms.

Precautions

1. Please go down only as much as you can without straining your shoulders.

2. Keep your core engaged to prevent your hips from dropping.
