Paused Push-Up

Start in a high plank position with your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart and your body in a straight line from head to heels.

Engage your core and squeeze your glutes to keep your body stable and prevent your hips from sagging.

Bend your elbows to lower your chest toward the floor in a controlled motion.

Pause for one to two seconds when your chest is just above the ground, maintaining tension throughout your entire body.

Press firmly through your palms to push yourself back up to the starting plank position.

Inhale as you lower down and exhale as you push back up to the top.
