Instructions
1. Begin in a standard push-up position with your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart, arms straight, and feet together.
2. Engage your core and glutes to keep a straight line from your head to your heels, ensuring your body is not arching or sagging.
3. Lower your body towards the floor by bending your elbows, keeping them close to your sides.
4. Exhale as you push yourself back up to the starting position.
5. Once at the top, shift your weight slightly onto one hand and rotate your torso, extending the opposite arm towards the ceiling in a twist. Your feet will pivot with the twist, and your body will form a T-shape.
6. Return to the starting push-up position and perform another push-up.
7. After the push-up, rotate and twist to the opposite side.
8. Continue alternating sides with each rep, making sure to perform the push-ups with good form and controlled movements.
