How to do it
Begin by placing your knees on a step up and position your hands on the floor shoulder-width apart.
Engage your chest and ensure your body forms a straight line from your head to your knees.
Lower your chest towards the floor by bending your elbows, keeping them at a 45-degree angle to your body.
Push through your hands to return to the starting position, straightening your arms. Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions.
Form tips
Avoid flaring your elbows out to the sides; keep them at a 45-degree angle to engage your chest and triceps more effectively.
Perform the movement with control to maximize muscle activation and prevent injury.
Breathe steadily throughout the exercise, exhaling as you push up and inhaling as you lower down.
No box? A stair step works just as well.
