One move
Incline Push-Ups
How to read ahead. Do to go one move at a time.
Hands on a sturdy elevated surface (bench, couch, wall), body in a straight line, lower chest toward the surface and press back up. Easier entry to pushing strength.
Option. Higher surface = easier. Lower the hands or move to regular push-ups as you get stronger.
