Spider Push-Ups

Starting Position: Begin in a standard push-up position with your hands placed shoulder-width apart and your body forming a straight line from head to heels.

Engage Core: Keep your core tight and engaged throughout the exercise to maintain stability and support your spine.

Lower and Lift Knee: As you lower your body towards the floor by bending your elbows, simultaneously lift your right knee towards your right elbow. Your knee should move outwards, coming close to your elbow at the lowest point of the push-up.

Push Up and Extend Leg: Push your body back up to the starting position while extending your right leg back to its original position.

Alternate Sides: Repeat the movement, this time lifting your left knee towards your left elbow as you lower your body.

Controlled Movement: Perform the exercise in a controlled manner. Avoid any jerky movements and ensure your hips do not sag or rise too high.

Breathing Pattern: Inhale as you lower your body and exhale as you push back up to the starting position.

Repetitions and Sets: Aim for 8-12 repetitions on each side, depending on your fitness level. You can do 2-3 sets with a short rest in between.
