Do you know how to perform a proper push up with regressions if needed

A staple exercise in calisthenics and general fitness, the average person should be able to perform at least 1 body weight push up with decent form but you would be amazed to know how many cant. There are a lot of different ways to teach push ups depending on each individual's stability,mobility,strength and body control.
This is how I personally teach the push up to clients and others around me, I've applied these techniques over the last few years with great results from all different types of people. In this video I'm showing some very common mistakes most people make, also how to properly progress the push up so that anyone can learn no matter what level your at.

Run through this check list next time you do some push ups,

The set up
-Hands pointed forward
-Shoulders over wrist
-Screw hands down to develop torque and stability in the shoulder
-Pack scaps (shoulder blades)
-Chin tucked
-Ribcage down/Neutral Spine
-Contract glutes
-Whole body tension

Try to keep your body like this through the whole movement💪🏼 The execution
-Breath into your belly and compress your mid section activating your TVA
-Actively pull yourself down into position keeping your forearms pretty much vertical and until the elbow breaks 90"
-Think about "Pushing the floor away" as your coming back up and then exhale and repeat

That's a basic overview of the push up, it gets WAY more advanced like weighted, clapping, 180s, 360s ect... this is just a general overview hoping to help some of you as well, More videos coming soon! Let me know what exercises you want to see next, Vancouver Personal trainer - Shawn Adair
