How To Do Press-ups

Health And Fitness : Exercise Guide

Here is the correct technique for a press-up:

First, the start position:

Hands a little wider than your shoulders, and beneath the chest. Keep body straight, feet together on your toes, and don't hunch shoulders.

Finish position:

Body is lowered to approximately the width of your first above the floor.

Ensure only bend at the elbows, and that you body is kept flat - e.g. no arching! Return to start position in a smooth motion. Don't jerk or do too quickly.
