Simultaneously targeting the core, chest, tricep, bicep and back muscles, standard push-ups are one of the most effective full-body exercises you can perform. It’s a physically challenging move, but there are multiple modifications you can choose from to make it work for you.

Opinião de especialista
A regular push-up is gold standard for body-weight movements.
It never seems to get easier, but it continually makes you stronger through the chest, core, shoulders, core and back. Plus, it’s very versatile––you can easily modify to your preferences and abilities.
