Different types of PushUps (Part 2)



Different types of PushUps (Part 2)
 A continuation of different PushUps...

    1.      T-PushUp




Start from the Basic Push Up Position. Take one hand off the ground and raise it straight up in the air. This way the body forms a T shape. Keep your eyes on the raised hand.
Repeat movement with the other hand. This constitutes one rep.

    2.      Single-Leg PushUp


Start with the Normal PushUp position.
Raise one leg and do a set of reps. Switch legs and repeat.
This Pushup intensifies the work done on the upper body.

    3.      Feet-Elevated PushUp



This involves a Basic PushUp position but with the legs resting on an elevated surface like a bench or chair.
The higher the elevation of the leg, the more work done on the shoulders, chest and core.
It also works on the muscles that connect the neck and shoulders.

    4.       Front-Clap PushUp




Start with the Basic PushUp position.
Forcefully push your body off the ground so that you clap your hand in front of your body, then go back to the PushUp position.
This PushUp works on the muscle fibers in your chest. It also works on the muscles in the arm. 


More PushUp types will be posted soon. Dont forget to try these ones out. See how it goes. 

Stay Strong.
