Instructions
1. Find an elevated surface: Begin by finding an elevated surface that is stable and can support your body weight. Suitable options include a box, bench, or step. Stand in front of it.
2. Position your hands: Place your hands on the elevated surface slightly wider than shoulder-width apart, with fingers pointing forward.
3. Align your body: Step back with your feet until your body forms a straight line from head to heels. This is your starting position.
4. Lower your body: Keeping your body rigid, bend your elbows to lower yourself towards the elevated surface until your chest is just above it.
5. Push up: Push through your hands to extend your arms, lifting your body back to the starting position.
6. Maintain core stability: Make sure to keep your core engaged and avoid letting your hips sag or rise during the movement.
7. Repeat: Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions and sets.
Ensure proper form is maintained throughout the exercise to avoid injury and maximize effectiveness. Adjust the height of the elevated surface to increase or decrease difficulty as needed.
