Push up

Place your hands on the floor just beyond shoulder width apart. Keep your back straight and your knees bent, resting on the floor. Keeping your abdominal muscles tight, slowly lower your body so as to touch your nose to the floor. Squeeze chest muscles to push yourself back to the starting position. To increase the resistance, try doing the push-up on your toes instead of your knees.
Do three sets of 12 repetitions, resting no more than 90 seconds between each set.
This exercise strengthens the pectorals (chest) and firms the triceps (muscles at the back of the upper arm).

I am a huge fan of chest push up, I am been doing it for 4 years now, the results are amazing. Your chest will be well tone. I am a huge fan of chest push up, I am been doing it for 4 years now, the results are amazing. Your chest will be well tone. [less] [delete] [flag] [reply]
