Side Push-Up
Lying on one side, press the upper body up with the top arm alone, so one triceps does the lift.
How to do it
Setup
On one side, knees bent, bottom arm across the waist, top hand flat in front of the chest.
Steps
- Press the floor away until the top arm is straight.
- Keep the hips and legs down; only the upper body rises.
- Lower under control; finish the side, then switch.
Common mistakes
Hand too close to the face: set it in front of the chest. Pushing with the bottom arm: keep it on the waist. Dropping onto the shoulder: lower under control.
Breathing
Exhale pressing, inhale returning.
