How to do Bodyweight Elevated Push Up
- Place your hands on a sturdy bench or box slightly wider than shoulder width.
- Walk your feet back until your body forms a straight line from head to heels at an incline.
- Brace your core, squeeze your glutes, and pull your shoulder blades back and down.
- Lower your chest toward the bench under control with elbows tracked at about 45 degrees from your torso.
- Pause briefly when your chest is just above the bench, keeping full-body tension throughout.
- Press back up explosively through the palms until your arms lock out, then reset for the next rep.
