Chest Tap Push-Up
Gym Exercise Card
Equipment
Chest Tap Push-Ups are a dynamic variation of the traditional push-up. This exercise enhances upper body strength and coordination by adding the challenge of alternating hand taps on the chest. It effectively engages the core for stability while focusing on both the chest and triceps for muscle development.
How to do it
- Start in a standard push-up position with your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.
- Lower your body until your chest nearly touches the floor.
- Push back up to the starting position.
- At the top, lift one hand to tap your chest, then return it to the floor.
- Repeat, alternating hands for each rep, maintaining a strong plank position.
