Step 1 : Assume the standard push-up positions : prone, feet together, hands on the floor just below the level of your shoulders about shoulders’ width apart. Move your feet apart, a little more than shoulders’ width.
Step 2 : Lift one hand and rest it on the small of your back.
Step 3 : Using the other hand, push your body up from the floor, keeping your back straight. Stop just before you “lock out” your elbow at the top of the movement.
Step 4 : Lower your body with the one arm. To maintain your balance, turn your torso slightly away from the pushing arm.
Step 5 : Continue lowering yourself until your chin is about a fist’s width above the floor. Since your angled your torso, your chin should be about whee the hand you now have behind your back was when you started the exercise. This is one repetition.
