Push Up, Kneeling Steps:

Step 1:
Start on your knees

Step 2:
Place both hands on the floor in front of you, shoulder width apart

Step 3:
Wrists and elbows should be inline with the chest

Step 4:
Fingers facing forward, so your body is in a straight line and supported only by your hands and knees

Step 5:
Pull in the abdominals tight and keep the pelvis straight

Step 6:
Maintain a straight back throughout the exercise

Step 7:
Bend at the elbows to lower the body towards the floor until the upper arms are parallel to the floor

Step 8:
Chest should be around 2-3 inches off the floor

Step 9:
Pause briefly then push back to the start position by extending the elbows

Top Tip:

Move the knees further away from the abdomen to make it more difficult. Likewise bring them closer to make it slightly easier.
