Push-ups

How to do it

Start in a high plank. Lower the body until the chest touches the floor, keeping elbows tracking back at a 45-degree angle. Press back to full lockout.

The coaching cue

"Your body is a single sheet of steel."

What changes inside an AMRAP

Do not let your hips sag to touch the floor before your chest does.

Common mistakes

• Bouncing the chest off the floor to get out of the bottom.
• Letting the elbows flare wide so they no longer track back at an angle.
