Push ups - one of the best exercises around. The reason for push ups — one of the best exercises — is the countless variations available for exercise. One such variation of the classic push is that the soccer ball is moving forward. Some people with a lawyer use a medicine ball, but I think more people have a soccer ball lying around the house than a medicine ball. In any case, use the ball (even basketball) that you have around the house. Put both hands on the ball and keep your feet together. Perform push ups just like in classic mode. You will notice that your kernel must really engage in order to maintain balance. It works on a good part of your body with just one exercise.
You can also change the difficulty of the exercise, how wide your legs are. Feet wide apart create a more stable base, so make the exercise easier. Legs close together destabilize your base and more muscles to maintain balance. Once you have mastered your legs close together, lift one foot off the ground to make it even more difficult.
You can even switch how you position your hands. Start with the thumb facing inwards, with your fingers forward. You can also try the thumbs, back and fingers. Theses options will be aimed at your chest and shoulders in different ways.
Another option is one hand on the ground and the other on the ball. Perform two repetitions, and then switch your hands to the floor. Combine these different positions to come up with many different combinations. Use your imagination and come up with some new options. Soon you will come up with your own soccer ball. Hope this helps you achieve your fitness goals!
