Push-ups

About

Push-ups are a fundamental bodyweight exercise that target multiple muscle groups, including the chest, shoulders, triceps, and core. This compound movement is highly effective for building upper body strength and improving overall physical fitness. By engaging the pectoralis major and minor, deltoids, triceps, and core muscles, push-ups enhance muscular endurance and stability. They are versatile, requiring no equipment, making them accessible for various fitness levels. Regularly performing push-ups can improve posture, enhance functional fitness, and contribute to cardiovascular health. They also play a role in bone density maintenance and can be modified to suit different abilities. Proper form is crucial to avoid injuries and maximize benefits. Incorporating push-ups into a workout routine can be done two to three times a week, allowing for adequate recovery and muscle growth. This exercise is beneficial for both beginners and advanced individuals, offering a wide range of variations to increase difficulty or accommodate limitations.
