Push-ups isolate your chest, triceps and shoulders, and also keep your core strong. Make sure to breathe through the exercise, and if you have wrist pain, you can modify by using dumbbells as handles.
- Start on your hands and toes with your body in a straight line from your shoulders to your hips.
- Keeping your core tight, bend your elbows as you lower your body towards the ground.
- Stop right before you touch the mat, and return to starting position.
- Continue slow and controlled for 10-15 repetitions.
- Modify your push-ups by beginning on your knees and building up to your toes.
