Kneeling Push-Up
From the knees, with the body straight from head to knees; the shorter lever takes weight off without changing the movement.
How to do it
Setup
From the knees, body straight from head to knees, hands under the shoulders.
Steps
- Lower the chest to just above the floor.
- Keep the head-to-knees line rigid.
- Press up; mix in full push-up negatives to progress.
Common mistakes
Hips bent at the knees' line: straight from HEAD to knees. Half depth: the short lever exists to allow FULL depth; use it. Staying here too long: negatives bridge to full reps.
Breathing
Inhale down, exhale pressing.
