Shoulder Tap Push-Ups

1. Start in a high plank position with your hands in line with your chest.
2. Bend your elbows to hover your chest just above the floor.
3. Push back up to the high plank position.
4. Once we reach the top of the high plank, pick up your right hand to touch your left shoulder.
5. Bring that hand back down to the high plank position, and repeat the entire exercise, but raise the left hand to the right shoulder.
- Keep your elbows into your sides.
- Activate your chest to do the push. That is where most of the power should come from.
- Keep your core tight and maintain a flat position. We do not want to raise our glutes/hips.
- By engaging our cores, we will also keep our hips square to the floor. Do not twist your body in order to do the shoulder tap.
- To modify, these can be done from your knees, or we can touch our elbows rather than our shoulders.
