How To Do A Push Up With QWellness – Instruction Video

 Check out our video showing you how to do a a push up; using both simplified and advanced options!

In this instalment of the free QWellness instruction video series we’re showing you how to do the perfect push up! The push up is an excellent exercise to build strength and stability in the core region. It is essentially a dynamic plank – aka movement based. Combined with the mountain climber exercise and the squat it is perfect as part of a 10-20 minute circuit, at home, when travelling, or in the office. After a delicious Q Cafe Company lunch of course!

In the video we show you how to make the push up simpler by elevating it. As you grow in strength and confidence you can drop down to a lower elevation, gradually moving towards the floor.

Try a home workout: 

Complete five rounds of the below exercises for time. See links to videos on how to do each exercise too. 

15 push ups

20 squats

Our exercise video range has been developed in conjunction with chartered physiotherapist, Sam Rice (BSc. Sports Science; MSc. Physiotherapy), Unit 13 Gym, & our QWellness Coordinator Leah Moore (BSc. Sport Science, MSc. Sports Science with Sport Psychology).
