Guided Instructions
Find a stable surface such as a bench, table edge, or sturdy elevated platform. Place your hands shoulder-width apart on the surface and step your feet back until your body forms a straight line from head to heels. Engage your core to prevent your hips from sagging. Lower your chest toward the surface slowly by bending your elbows, keeping them at about a 45-degree angle from your body. Push through your palms to return to the starting position, focusing on squeezing your chest muscles at the top.
Trainer’s Tip
Keep your neck neutral—avoid looking up or down. Maintain a controlled motion rather than rushing the movement to fully engage the muscles and protect your joints. To increase intensity, lower the incline or perform the exercise with one leg lifted for added core challenge.
Motivation to Move
Remember, it’s not about perfection—it’s about progress. Every incline push-up builds your strength, confidence, and form. Stay consistent, stay focused, and your upper body power will rise with every rep.
