General And Specifics
- this exercise demands a good stability
Starting Position
- pick up a kettlebell or dumbbell with each hand
- get into the push-up position
- support your body by placing the hands shoulder width apart, they hold on tight to the weights
- the palms of the hands point to each other
- the hands are vertically under the shoulders
- brace the body and hold the hands stable in extension to the forearms
- do not let the weights roll outwards
- the legs are a bit wider than shoulder width apart
- your sight goes to the ground
- try to hold your body stable in a straight line as well as you can
Correct Execution
- bend one arm and lift the weight to the lateral abs
- the other arm remains stable and avoid stretching through the joint
- your upper body turns up a tiny bit during this movement
- afterwards, let the weight sink down to the ground again, keep in mind the shoulder width
- then do a regular push-up
- repeat the movement with the other arm, too
- and repeat the exercise several times
tips for the workout
- make it easier by doing the exercise on your knees
- the closer the feet, the more difficult
- if you cannot hold your body stable, you can also only use one weight
- if you do so, do not forget the other arm
- additionally, you can leave out the push-up (chest and triceps are less required then)
