GOAL
Build up your pressing strength through proper positioning and high volume

DETAILS
1. Set hands right outside of shoulders on the dumbbell rack, couch or bench. 
2. Get in a tight plank position. No sagging your stomach or arching your lower back excessively.
2. Feet together, butt squeezed, ribs tucked and as you descend down into the push up squeeze your shoulder blades back. 
3. At the top of the rep, push away with your shoulder blades to get more movement in your serratus/scapula. 

Pro-Tip: #1 mistake is your elbow position. If your elbows track out, that's a no no. If you lose the Right Triangle in your elbow that's a no no. 

If that happens, it's because you're pressing "too high." Step closer to the bar or bench and touch the bar to below your sports bra with the elbows close to your rib cage. 

CUES
- Plank Position
- Squeeze the Shoulder Blades Back
- Right Triangle
- Bar/Bench Below Nips

Incline Push Ups

2. Use your knee to hike the weights up to your chest height as you lay back on the bench. 
3. Immediately press out of the first rep, that may be the trickiest part.
4. Elbows are 45 degrees angle your body and you got that right triangle in yo elbow. 
5. Control the weight as it descends. Lower elbows to parallel or just below for happy shoulders and strength building.

This really helped me ❤️ Thank you for being vulnerable and relatable. Definitely appreciate the wise words and perspective.

I really appreciate you taking the time to share all of this with us. It really shows how much passion you have & how much you care about us. I’ve resonated A LOT with the struggles & solutions you’ve shared over time since I’ve joined your app when it launched. All of the things you share about spirituality & alignment is so real and it’s so nice to know I’m not alone in that. A lot of people around me it’s kinda like in one ear & out the other. Makes me feel seen that you share similar valuess. So glad you’d been regaining your health back’
