Fitness bloggers from the “Workout School” named a joint-killing mistake in push-ups. This is reported by Men Today.
The expert stated that the mistake is in the width of the grip and the position of the elbows. It is from this that the technique should be built according to the position of the elbows and the movement down and up. In addition, this rule is also used in push-ups on the bars. If performed incorrectly, the arms are subject to a greater load, and the risk of injury increases.
The trainer noted that the wider your arms are, the further you need to move your elbows. This rule will reduce the load on your shoulder, elbow and wrist joints during push-ups, as well as perform more repetitions and progress faster.
Earlier, fitness trainer Roman Filippenko recommended a lighter version of push-ups, which is suitable for beginners and women. The expert suggested doing push-ups from the knees. He noted that similar muscle groups are involved, but the load is reduced.
