Shoulder Tap Push-up
Equipment
Lower your body towards the floor, bending at the elbows to perform a push-up, keeping your core engaged to maintain balance and form.
As you push yourself back up to the high plank position, lift your right hand off the floor and tap your left shoulder.
Return your right hand to the floor and then perform another push-up.
After pushing up, lift your left hand off the floor and tap your right shoulder, then return your left hand to the floor to complete one repetition.
Pro Tip
Controlled Movements: When performing the shoulder tap, make sure to do it in a controlled manner. Avoid rushing through the movements or using momentum to lift your hand off the ground. Instead, focus on engaging your core and maintaining stability. A common mistake is to let the body twist or sway side to side during the shoulder tap. Engage Your Core: To perform this exercise safely and effectively, it's important to engage your core throughout the entire movement. This will help you maintain balance and stability, and also protect your lower back. A
