How to do diamond push up

Coach's Tips

Perform a push-up with your hands placed close together. This exercise emphasizes your inner chest muscles!

Start Position

1. Assume a standard plank posture with hands positioned at shoulder width and feet together.

2. Position your hands slightly wider than shoulder width on the ground, maintaining a tight core and hips.

Proper Form

1. Lower yourself until your chest and thighs make contact with the ground.

2. Push up with force, rotating your hands outward so thumbs touch the ground at the peak.

3. Rotate your hands back to the original position as you rise and repeat.

Breathing Technique

1. Breathe in while lowering your body and breathe out as you push up.

2. Keep your breathing regular and controlled throughout.

Precautions

1. Ensure your body stays in a straight line, avoiding any back arching.

2. Do not lock your elbows; keep them slightly bent during the exercise.

3. Engage your core and hips consistently.
