Suspended Push Up with TRX

The suspended push up places the feet in suspension straps while the hands stay on the floor, and the instability underneath changes what the movement demands. A standard push up asks the chest, triceps and front deltoids to move your bodyweight; suspend the feet and the core must additionally resist the constant small corrections the straps introduce, which turns the exercise into serious anti-extension work for the abdominals. Raising the feet also shifts more of your bodyweight onto the arms, so the pressing demand climbs at the same time. It is a genuine progression rather than a variation, and it should follow a clean set of full push ups on the floor. Keep the hips from sagging: the moment the lower back drops, the core has stopped doing its job. Widening the hands slightly makes the position more stable at first, and lowering the straps closer to the floor reduces the difficulty without changing the pattern.
