Overview
Band closegrip pushups are an advanced of the classic pushup that targets the triceps more effectively than regular pushups. The band provides resistance, which makes it harder to push yourself up, and the close grip forces you to engage your triceps more. To do a band closegrip pushup, start in a plank position with your feet shoulder-width apart and your hands shoulder-width apart with a resistance band looped around your hands. Bend your elbows and lower your body until your chest is an inch or two above the ground, then push yourself back up. Repeat for 8-12 reps.
