๐Follow thetrainingmanual for more fitness/nutrition infoโ
-
๐The diamond push up is an advanced variation to the wide grip push up, requiring any individual doing it to put both hands together to form a diamond shape, hence the name.
-
๐Also called the triangle push-ups or the close hand push-ups, this is an exercise you want to include in your workout for several reasons. Here they are:
1๏ธโฃ Increased Tricep Activation
2๏ธโฃ Great Chest Workout
3๏ธโฃ Progression Towards One Arm Push-ups
4๏ธโฃ Greater Balance Requirement
5๏ธโฃ Strong(er) Shoulders
-
โ Remember not to flare your elbows out too much and keep them close to your body. The temptation to do it with wrong form is bigger than with regular push-ups as there is less space to fit your arms, but keep your form strict and you will reap the rewards. A 45-degree angle between your arm and your body is what you should aim for.

Save this for later so that you can use it! ๐
