“Get down on the ground and give me five!” For fitness fans, push-ups are pretty much the best workout ever. But all of us are so hooked on the normal straight leg, straight back, and drop and rise with the arms over and over again. Say I told you about three different types of push-ups that most people don’t know about but should? What would you do? Yes, I’m sure you would go crazy or something like that.
Push-Ups With Only One Leg
From the name, it sounds like this workout is very simple. During push-ups, lift one leg straight out behind you. Make sure your hips stay in line. Do the same number of reps on both sides. Trust me, you don’t want a 3-pack down one side of your stomach. One-legged push-ups are a good way to strengthen your core, which in turn improves your balance and stability. You should notice that your legs, buttocks, and lower back are getting stronger.
Do ‘T’ Push-Ups
Someone said “tea.” Sorry, not quite. Love handles that need to be shaved off can be fixed with T push-ups. Basically, all you have to do is do a push-up and then drop a little, but now comes the twist, both physically and figuratively. Turn your body out so that one arm is straight up and out when you press yourself back up. This will make your stomach face out. After stretching, go back to your normal position and do it again on the other side. You may be wondering what this is good for. First, it makes your shoulders, arms, and biceps stronger. Next, it makes your stomach muscles and the muscles under your arms tighter.
Taps On The Shoulder
Are you able to shoulder things? You’re already ahead of everyone else, which is great. Begin with the standard push-up pose, then lower yourself. When you rise again, tap your shoulder with the other hand. When you do a push-up, make sure you switch sides, not just once, but every time. What a great way to work out your core, arms, oblique muscles, and triceps! The bonus is that it’s great for coordination.
It’s Not Just Push-Ups
When we work out at home, we tend to forget about them and save our praise for the gym. When you get home and are waiting for the vegetables to roast in the oven, why not do some of these push-ups to get your heart rate up? One hour is all it takes, but wait until you see how much it gives!
