Ball Inclined Push Ups

Instructions

  • Begin with your body in a straight, prone position. Feet on the ground and hands on the ball holding yourself up with arms extended.
  • Lower yourself down bending at the elbows until your chest barely touches the ball. Pause, then slowly extend your arms to the starting position.
  • Be sure to breath in as you lower yourself down and breath out as you push up off the ball.

Tips

  • Hand placement variations will effect the muscles used. A closer grip will target your inner chest and triceps as a regular grip will focus more on your chest muscles.
