How to do it
A push-up against the wall. It builds chest, shoulder and arm strength without getting down on the floor.
- Stand an arm's length from a wall and place your hands on it at shoulder height, a little wider than your shoulders.
- Keep your body straight from head to heels.
- Bend your elbows to bring your chest towards the wall.
- Push back to straight arms.
Tips and safety
- Step your feet further back to make it harder.
- Keep your stomach tight so your hips don't sag.
- When it's easy, move on to incline push-ups on a bench.
Move within a comfortable range and stop if you feel pain. If you have an injury or health condition, check with a qualified professional first.
