Doing push-ups can exercise the body. Push-ups are often done in physical education. The main function of push-ups is to improve the strength of the upper limbs, waist and abdominal muscles. However, some people's improper practice will directly affect the exercise effect. Some people may suffer muscle damage if they do not do it correctly, so it is very important to master the correct push-up movements. If you use some irregular methods to do push-ups for a long time, it will not only be ineffective, but also hurt your body. So let's take a look at the correct postures for doing push-ups. Correct posture for push-ups 1. Basic push-ups Action essentials: Keep your upper body completely straight, feet slightly apart, hands on the same line as shoulders, arms half bent, then lower your body until your chest almost touches the ground, and finally return to the initial position. 2. Indian push-ups (best done before meals) Action essentials: Open your arms so that the distance between them is slightly wider than shoulder width, and do the same with your legs. Lower your chest and move it forward as if drawing a curved parabola, stretching your body as far forward as possible until your legs are completely straight. Then move your body in the opposite direction backward while bending your legs as little as possible. Finally return to the initial state. 3. Sparta push-ups (this set of movements belongs to the advanced level of push-ups) Key points of the movement: At the beginning, the chest is close to the ground, one hand and its elbow are on the same vertical line, so that the arm forms a right angle, and the other palm is placed slightly below the chest. At this time, both arms support the body, and the moment both hands leave the ground, the positions of both hands are exchanged at the same time. 4. Compound Push-ups Action essentials: bend down, place your palms on the ground, shift your body weight to your hands, and then stretch your legs backwards. At this time, your palms should be in the same vertical line as your chest muscles. Keep your elbows tense, support your body, use your triceps and chest muscles to slowly bring your body closer to the ground, then push your body up with all your strength, and jump your legs back to the starting position. Finally stand up again. (Note: The whole set of movements should be completed in the shortest possible time to improve the effect) The above is an introduction to the correct posture of push-ups. As long as we persist in exercising, we will achieve the purpose of exercise. If some people can't do it by themselves, they can use push-up equipment. As long as we use the correct push-up posture, we will definitely exercise our body and achieve our exercise effect. If your push-up posture is incorrect, then after reading what we introduced, you must improve yourself from these postures, make adjustments, and get good results from your exercise. |
