Pushup

Beschreibung

A push-up is a classic bodyweight exercise that primarily targets the muscles of the chest, shoulders, and triceps, while also engaging the core and lower body for stability. To perform a push-up, begin in a plank position with your hands placed slightly wider than shoulder-width apart and your feet together or slightly apart. Your body should form a straight line from head to heels, with your core tightened and back flat.
Push-ups can be modified for different fitness levels, such as knee push-ups or incline push-ups, making them accessible to everyone. This exercise is effective for building upper body strength, improving core stability, and enhancing overall functional fitness.

I can maintain proper push-up form
I keep my body in a straight line from head to heels, ensuring my core is engaged and my back remains flat.

I can lower my body with control
I can lower myself smoothly until my chest is just above the ground without letting my hips sag or rise.

I can perform multiple reps
I gradually increase the number of push-ups I can complete in a set, building strength and endurance over time.

I can vary my hand placement
I can perform push-ups with different hand positions (wide, narrow, or staggered) to target various muscle groups and enhance strength.

I can maintain a steady breathing pattern
I practice controlled breathing, exhaling as I push up and inhaling as I lower my body, to enhance my endurance during the exercise.
