Slow-lowering incline push-up on a step

  • Duration: 9 min
  • Level: Beginner
  • Goal track: Energy boost

Place both hands on a sturdy, low step, slightly wider than shoulder-width apart, and step your feet back until your body forms a straight line from head to heels. Keeping your core braced, lower your chest toward the step as slowly as you can — aim for a count of five — then push back up to the start at a normal pace. Do 3 sets of 6 repetitions.
