Close Grip Push Up – Exercise of the Week
- Keep your abs braced and body in a straight line from your knees to shoulders
- Place your hands on the floor with your hands shoulder-width apart (closer than you would for a standard push up)
- Keep your elbows tucked into your sides as you do the pushup
- Slowly lower yourself down until you are about 5cm off the ground
- Push through your chest, shoulders and triceps to return to the start position
- Keep your body in a straight line (from your knees to head) at all times
