Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Foot position and leg drive reinforce stability even in upper-body movements.
- 2. Lock out fully at the top but avoid hyperextending the elbow joint.
- 3. Drive the floor away on floor-based pressing — create full-body tension.
Regression:
Perform from the knees or elevate hands on a bench to reduce the bodyweight load. Use resistance bands for assistance on overhead patterns.
Progression:
Progress to a harder variation: archer push-up, ring push-up, or deficit push-up.
Common Problems:
Wrist collapse under load — reinforce a stacked wrist and consider a neutral-grip variation.
