What is the Pompes inclinés?

Incline push ups are a variation of standard push-ups that target the upper chest and shoulders more effectively. This exercise is ideal for beginners as the incline reduces the load compared to floor push-ups, while still being effective for advanced athletes to finish the chest workout.

How to properly perform the Pompes inclinés

  1. Position yourself facing a sturdy elevated surface, such as a bench or step.
  2. Place your hands shoulder-width apart on the surface and extend your legs behind you, resting on your toes.
  3. Keep your body straight from head to heels, engaging your core and glutes.
  4. Bend your elbows and lower your chest towards the surface, maintaining a controlled and stable movement.
  5. Push through your palms and extend your arms, returning to the starting position.
  6. Repeat for the recommended number of repetitions.
