Cues:
- Set up with tops of feet on box/support
- Hips should stack above hands and shoulders in top position
- A taller box can help if you have limited flexibility, but sufficient strength
- Shift forward first then down towards target
- Push straight up then drive shoulders back into alignment as you complete the press
- Elbows stay inside
- Turning hands out slightly can help with keeping elbows in
- Keep core hollow throughout range of motion
Mistakes:
- Flaring elbows to outside
- Allowing back to arch and create an incline push-up
- Working with bottom of feet on box/support
- Failing to stack the hips
