Suspended Push-Up
A chest exercise targeting the chest.
How to do Suspended Push-Up
Anchor your suspension straps securely to the top of a rack or other object.
Leaning into the straps, take a handle in each hand and move into a push-up plank position. You should be as close to parallel to the ground as you can manage with your arms fully extended, maintaining good posture.
Maintaining a straight, rigid torso, descend slowly by allowing the elbows to flex.
Continue until your elbows break 90 degrees, pausing before you extend to return to the starting position.
