Fitness Tip: The push-up is one of the world’s greatest exercises. Maintain a rigid body line from the top of your head to your heels throughout the push.

Fitness Tip: If your hands and forearms give out before your back and legs, alternate your grip. It will ease the pressure on your hands, wrists and arms.

Fitness Tip: Do exercises that work multiple muscles and joints, eg. squats for legs and back; bent-over row for biceps and back, etc.

Fitness Tip: Use the ‘slow lifting’ trend during the easier part of an exercise. When you push, jump, etc., move the weight/your body as quickly as you can.

Fitness Tip: Add more work to each rep, and increase the efficiency of your workout by increasing the range of motion: squat deeper, raise the step ups, etc.
