Push Ups Side to Side

• You can perform this exercise on the floor or with hands on a bench or on a smith machine, depending on your level of strength.

• While on a plank position, with your hips rotated slightly forward to engage the core and glute muscles, perform a push up making sure your hands are at the level of your chest and not at the level of your shoulders.

• Avoid shrugging shoulders.

• “Step” to one side with your hands and perform another push up.

• Once back up, go back to the starting location while “walking” back with your hands to that same spot and perform another push up.

• Repeat for the suggested number of repetitions.
