Deep Push-Up

Expert Advice

Keep your elbows close to your body to maximize triceps engagement and protect your shoulder joints.

Place two dumbbells on the floor at shoulder width and assume a push-up position, gripping the dumbbell handles.
Lower your body slowly until your chest is below the level of the dumbbells.
Push back up to the starting position, fully extending your arms.
