Press Up Variations Movement Tip!
There are many variations of a push up, targeting chest and upper body strength as well as core and hip stability. 💪📈
Whether you have mastered a full push up or not, you could still aim to include some unilateral variations to further challenge core and hip stability (more likely the first and fourth variation shown in this demo). The single leg variation will further challenge your upper body strength, as well as your core and hip stability as your body stabilises itself with a leg lifted. Loading through one arm or shifting your weight to favour one side will challenge your strength more on that side of your upper body (arm, shoulder and chest) as well as your core and hip stability. ⚖️
Here are a few variations to try here, those performed resting on one knee will be easier than those up on your toes. Those challenging the upper body more may be more suitable to someone who can already perform a full press up easily.
What are your favourite unilateral push up variations? 🤔
