Instructions
1. Start in a standard push-up position with hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart and feet together. Ensure your body forms a straight line from your heels to your head.
2. Lower your body to the floor by bending your elbows, keeping them close to your body.
3. As you push back up, simultaneously jump your feet out to the sides as if performing a jumping jack.
4. Jump your feet back together while lowering yourself into your next push-up.
5. Repeat this movement for the desired number of repetitions, performing the exercise with control and maintaining proper form throughout.
Remember to breathe throughout the exercise, exhaling during the upward pushing phase and inhaling when lowering back down. It's important to keep your core engaged to maintain body alignment and prevent your hips from sagging or piking up. Adjust the speed and intensity as per your fitness level, and always consult with a fitness professional if you're new to this exercise or have any health concerns.
