The push-up is a very effective strength training exercise that you could perform with only your bodyweight. Moreover, it could be performed by even beginners and casual trainers, thanks to its simple motion.

Instructions:

Step 1: Lie down on the floor in a plank position and rest your body on your palms and the feet. Place the hands shoulder-width apart while keeping the legs together.

Step 2: Gradually lift your upper body by flexing your elbows until the arms are in a fully extended position.

Step 3: Hold for a moment and return to the initial position. Ensure that your body does not sag towards the ground. Do not use momentum to lower yourself; instead, focus on a smooth motion for increased efficiency.

Perform the exercise for the recommended number of repetitions.

Important tip: Mix it up by performing incline and decline push-ups to active the upper and the lower pectorals. You could even perform this exercise while wearing a weighted vest for added resistance.
