We Heart Living – Press-up

Press-ups

Areas worked: core, shoulders, chest and arms
Get into the press-up position by lying facing down on the floor with your feet hip-width apart. Depending on your ability, you can perform this exercise by stabilising your body with your knees or feet. Put your hands on the floor and straighten your arms, ensuring that your hands are slightly wider than shoulder width apart. To complete a rep, lower your body until your chest nearly touches the ground then return to the start position. Keep your core strong and make sure you don’t let your hips sag toward the floor.
