Bent Side Knee Push-Up
A push-up where one knee travels out to the side and up to the elbow as the chest lowers, sides alternating.
How to do it
Setup
Hands a little wider than the shoulders, body straight from head to heels.
Steps
- Lower the chest while one knee slides out to the elbow.
- Press up and return the leg to the plank.
- Repeat with the other knee.
Common mistakes
Knee dragging on the floor: lift it clear as it travels. Rushing the knee: it arrives as the chest does. Elbows flaring wide: keep them near 45°.
Breathing
Inhale lowering, exhale pressing.
