Elevated Pike Push-Ups

Shoulders

1. Start with your feet up on a box or bench. Walk your hands back so that your shoulders and hands are stacked beneath your hips (Inverted L shape)
2. While maintaining this shape, bend your elbows to bring the crown of your head toward the floor.
3. Push back to return to the starting position.
- This is used to target our shoulders. Engage your shoulders to both lower and push back up.
- Your head does not touch the floor. It should hover just above the ground.
- Engage your core.
- To help maintain the L position, look at the box. If we look down at the floor, we are more likely to compromise form and flatten out to more of a push-up position. By looking through back at the box, we will keep the crown of our heads down and our hips up.
