Chest and arms can be strengthened with this potent push-up. It also helps in shaping up the waist.

  • You should start with a plank pose, and elbows have to be bent, thereafter lower into a push-up, your arms till the torso is about 2 to 4 inches from the ground.
  • While pushing back up, make your arms straight and lift the left arm in the direction of the ceiling, twist into a side plank pose such that your body makes a T shape, that is, the body should be rotated to the left to form the T.
  • Swivel back to the plank, left palm should be placed on the floor in a manner that facilitates lowering into a push up. The right hand and the outside of the left foot should be used for the purpose of balancing.
  • As you make your arms straight, swivel to the left, levitating the right arm upwards. Go back to the plank. Swap sides for a minute. Relax when you feel the need to.

2. TKO (Total Knockout) Punches

  • Make the left foot jump or push inside and outside for 30 seconds. Afterwards change and do again on the other side.
