How to do it
4 stepsGet into a push-up position and place your feet on a bench, box or sturdy chair. Set your hands slightly wider than shoulder width.
Keep your body in one straight line from head to heels and brace your abs and glutes.
Lower your chest almost to the floor while your elbows move back at about 45 degrees to your torso.
Press the floor away to straighten your arms, pause briefly at the top and repeat for the planned reps.
The higher your feet, the more the load moves to the shoulders. Start low.
If your hips sag, put your feet on a lower surface or do regular push-ups.
