Wide Push-Ups

To excel at wide push-ups, follow these tips:

Proper Form: Maintain a straight body from head to heels. Keep your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.

Engage Core: Tighten your core muscles to stabilize your body throughout the movement.

Controlled Movement: Lower your body slowly, keeping your elbows at a 45-degree angle to your body.

Full Range of Motion: Lower your chest as close to the ground as possible without touching it, then push back up to the starting position.

Breathing: Inhale as you lower your body and exhale as you push back up.

Regular Practice: Incorporate wide push-ups into your regular workout routine to build strength and endurance.

Progressive Overload: Gradually increase the number of repetitions or sets as you get stronger.

Rest and Recovery: Allow your muscles to rest and recover between workouts to prevent injury and promote muscle growth.
