Weekly Wednesday Workout: Incline Push-Up
I recommend this one ONLY for my super athletes!

This is not an easy move!! I tried these with my feet on the sofa and oh boy. I will continue to build my upper body strength! These are not for the beginners, if you can do regular push-ups really well then you can maybe try this. It surely takes regular pushups to the next level! I love this body weight exercise!
Have you ever tried incline push-ups?

You haven’t lived until you’ve done these – with one foot!!! Oh heck ya!
Yeah, nope wouldn’t be able to do these with my lower back. Best I can do at this point in my life is modified push-ups and am just happy when I can do those. But still these look like a great workout if you can do them. Thanks Nellie and Happy Wednesday.
Yep -hard but great move!!!
Awesome move Nellie! I have never tried this…yet. I am working on my regular pushups and will try this when I get better at it.
I’m no super athlete! I’d be intrigued to try it, but only if no one was watching.
Ugh. Incline push-ups are in the strength training video I love. Needless to say, I’m still on the floor for those workouts. At least they use a step instead of something as high as a chair. Though the idea of pushing off of the chair with your arms sounds interesting. I’ll definitely have to try that!
