High Bar Incline Push-Up Instructions

Starting Position:
1. Stand facing the parallel bars.
2. Place your hands on the bars, ensuring they are shoulder-width apart.

4. Keep your core engaged and your body straight.

Movement Instructions:
1. Lowering Phase:
- Slowly bend your elbows to lower your body toward the bars.
- Keep your elbows at about a 45-degree angle from your body.

2. Pushing Phase:
- Press through your hands to push your body back up to the starting position.
- Extend your arms fully while keeping your body straight.

- If you are a beginner, you can modify the exercise by keeping your feet closer to the bars or lowering the angle by using a lower surface.
- Keep your head neutral and avoid looking up too high.
- Aim for controlled movements to maximize the effectiveness of the exercise.

Repetitions:
