Push-ups are fantastic for the arms, core, and upper back. Speir explained that one of the best ways to increase results and challenge the body is by adding imbalance. She said, "By sliding the leg out to the side, we add imbalance, which asks our arms to do some extra credit on this assignment."
- Begin in a plank position with a towel under your left foot.
- Bend your elbows and lower into a push-up while sweeping your left leg out to the left side. If this is too difficult, perform this exercise while resting your right knee on the floor.
- Straighten your arms as you sweep the left leg back to the starting position.
- Complete 30 seconds on each leg.
