Clap Push Ups Guide
- In the normal push up position, place your hands on a steady and stable stool or table.
- Push your body up fast so that you jump off the table/ stool. While at the maximum height attainable, clap your hands quickly.
- Spread your hands immediately for landing. Repeat the exercise to complete the set.
Trainer’s Tips
- Keep your torso straight and your abs tensed.
- During the whole exercise, hold back your shoulders and thrust out your chest.
- If you think the time you have in the air is not enough for clapping, simply spread your hands and land to avoid injury.
