Decline Diamond Push-Up

Step 1: Place a bench or an elevated surface behind you for positioning your feet.

Step 2: Squat down and place your hands on the floor before you, close together, forming a diamond shape with your thumbs and index fingers touching.

Step 3: Step back and position your feet on the bench, ensuring your body is declined and forms a straight line from your heels to your head.

Step 4: Engage your core, keeping your body straight at all times during the exercise.

Step 5: Lower your body toward the ground by bending your elbows until your chest nearly contacts your hands. Keep your elbows close to your body.

Step 6: Push back up to the initial position, fully extending your arms.

Step 7: Maintain the diamond hand placement consistently throughout the exercise.

Step 8: Repeat for the targeted number of repetitions and sets. This exercise notably targets the lower chest and emphasizes tricep engagement.
