What is the Press Ups From The Knees?

The press ups from the knees are an excellent modified exercise to strengthen the upper body, especially the chest, triceps, and shoulders. Ideal for beginners or those looking to reduce wrist strain, this movement can be included in any workout routine.

How to properly perform the Press Ups From The Knees

  1. Start in a kneeling position with your hands placed slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.
  2. Extend your legs behind you, resting on your toes, and align your body in a straight line from head to knees.
  3. Engage your core muscles and lower your upper body towards the floor by bending your elbows.
  4. Keep your body straight and avoid sagging your hips or arching your lower back.
  5. Pause for a moment when your chest is just above the floor.
  6. Push through your hands to extend your elbows and raise your body back to the starting position.
  7. Repeat for the recommended number of repetitions.
