Overview

The closegrip pushup is an exercise that targets the triceps. To do a closegrip pushup, start in a standard pushup position with your hands shoulder-width apart. Then, bring your hands in so that they are just outside of shoulder-width apart. Perform a pushup as you normally would, but focus on squeezing your triceps at the top of the movement. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
