Hand Walk Push-up Chest Rotation Instructions

  1. Start in a high plank position with your hands directly under your shoulders and your body in a straight line from head to heels.
  2. Engage your core and lower your body towards the ground by bending your elbows, keeping them close to your sides.
  3. Push through your hands to raise your body back up to the starting position.
  4. Once in the high plank position, walk your hands to one side, moving them away from your body.
  5. Keep your core engaged and your body stable as you perform a push-up with your hands in the new position.
  6. Push through your hands to raise your body back up to the starting position.
  7. Repeat the hand walk and push-up on the opposite side to complete one repetition.

Hand Walk Push-up Chest Rotation Tips

  1. Start by positioning yourself in a push-up position, with your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart and your feet together, creating a strong and stable base for the exercise.
  2. Engage your core muscles by drawing your belly button towards your spine, creating a solid foundation for the movement and activating your abs.
  3. As you lower your body towards the ground, focus on keeping your elbows close to your sides, engaging your chest muscles to control the descent and maximize the activation of your pectoral muscles.
  4. Once you reach the bottom of the push-up, exhale and press through your hands to push your body back up, simultaneously lifting one hand off the ground and rotating your torso to the side, engaging your obliques.
  5. As you rotate, keep your eyes fixed on the hand that is lifted off the ground, allowing your body to follow the movement and maintaining a straight line from head to toe, ensuring proper form and maximizing the engagement of your chest, abs, and obliques.
