Pushup Isometric Hold
>> YOUR LINK HERE: ___ http://youtube.com/watch?v=Jv2hgtdfcC8
The isometric push-up hold is used to build bent arm horizontal pushing strength. It targets the triceps, chest, anterior delt, lats, and serrates. Isometrics are a great way to build strength in the range of motion trained, and the bottom of the push-up is often a weakness, especially for those who have been performing partial range push-ups for a while. • ------------- • If you're a gymnastics skill seeker who want to build the strength to unlock perfect push-ups and start building the strength for chin-ups, you need to check out Building Bodyweight Strength Level 1. • https://www.thesustainabletrainingmet... • ------------- • Place the hands on the floor, roughly shoulder-width apart. Lift the knees off the floor and find a strong front leaning rest (FLR) position resting on the tops of the toes. The quads are contracted, we have a strong posterior pelvic tilt, and the ribcage pulled down slightly towards the top of the pelvis. Think about pulling the shoulder towards your back pockets and keeping them away from your ears. Slower lower down by taking the shoulder forward and keeping the elbows stacked vertically above the wrists. Continue to lower down until the chest is just above the floor. Notice the hips do not pike, and we maintain the nice hollow body shape with a strong posterior pelvic tilt. • Focus on pulling the elbows in towards your sides and pushing the triceps into the lats. Imagine you are holding pencils under each armpit and you must pinch your lats and triceps together to hold the imaginary pencils. Contract the chest muscle hard and push into the floor to hold an isometric contraction. • Hold the isometrics push-up for the prescribed amount of time.
