Master the Perfect Push-Up in Under 1 Minute 💪

Want to learn how to do a perfect Push-up in less than 1 minute?

From scapula position, to hand distance, to muscles stabilization we got you covered with everything you need to know to do a push-up with “perfect” form.

Let’s keep in mind that this is the basic version of a push-up. There are infinite ways to do push-ups and countless variations that are worth exploring. However, this will be considered “the regular” version, and it’s important to learn it before adding complexity to the movement.

Here is a summary of what’s important to keep in mind:

~ Hand distance: Usually a bit wider than shoulder width but it depends from person to person. To find the best position for you, lay on your chest (bottom position of the push-up) and experiment with the distance until your elbows are right below your shoulders and your forearms are in a straight line.

~ Starting position: Heals together. Legs together. Glutes engaged. Abs engaged. Hips open at 180• angle. Slight thoracic extension. Shoulders externally rotate so the elbows face slightly backward.

~ Scapula Position: at the start, we want our scapulas fully depressed and neutral. as we descent, we keep the depression while retracting the scapulas. They should be fully retracted at the bottom. As we push up scapulas end up in the same position —neutral and depressed. Small or full protraction on top is acceptable depending on your goals.

~ The movement: we want to keep the body line intact from shoulders to toes. As we bend the arms and retract the scapulas we will create the space for the body to move down while keeping the body line. Then, “push the flow away” and return to the initial position.
