Overview
The pushplank is an exercise that targets the chest muscles. It is a static exercise that involves holding your body in a plank position while simultaneously pushing your chest up and down. The pushplank can be performed on the floor, on a bench, or on an incline. To perform the pushplank, start by lying face down on the floor with your arms extended in front of you. Your feet should be shoulder-width apart and your toes should be pointed. Engage your core and glutes and slowly lift your body off the floor so that you are in a plank position. Your body should form a straight line from your head to your heels. Hold this position for as long as you can, then slowly lower your body back to the floor. The pushplank is a challenging exercise, but it is also a very effective way to strengthen your chest muscles.
