Incline Push-Up: how to do it
A push-up with the hands on a stable bench, box, table or step, chest to the edge and back to straight arms; the higher the hands, the easier.
NO EQUIPMENTStep by step

01 Hands on the edge of a solid bench, shoulder-width, body straight.
Avoid: hips sagging: the lower back arches and the abs switch off.

02 Chest to the edge, then press back to straight arms.
Avoid: going only halfway down: the full push-up range never gets trained.
In short
- Solid support that cannot slide, hands on the edge, shoulder-width
- Body straight from head to heels, chest to the edge
- Press back to straight arms
