Push-ups
The exercise targets the muscles of the chest,
shoulders and backside of the upper arms. Start
in a kneeling position on the fl oor in front of your
LEG MAGIC™ personal trainer. With your hands,
move forward gently into a push-up position and
lift your toes off the fl oor. See fi g. 23. Slowly
bend your arms such that the torso moves down
towards the fl oor. Keep your back straight and
the abdominal muscles tensed during the entire
movement. See fi g. 24. Hold the downward
position of this movement. Then stretch your
arms and push yourself up into the initial position.
The lower back may not bend or slump at any
time during the exercises. Keep your neck straight
when sinking down or pushing up. Repeat this
exercise for 60 seconds and, if necessary, pause
between the repetitions.
