Modify on your knees if needed, or do wall pushups if you're building up strength. Focus on proper form over speed - engage your core, keep your body straight, and lower until your chest nearly touches the ground for maximum benefit.

โAs a yoga teacher, Iโm a stickler for form. That means if my arms start to get tired and my form gets wonky a few pushups in, Iโm not afraid to drop to my knees to protect my shoulders and safely get the biggest bang for my buck. On day one of my one-month challenge, doing just five good-form pushups was tough! But over time, I was off my knees for the entire set.โ
โYesterday, randomly, my trainer had me tuck one elbow under myself and do pushups with one arm. And I was like... wait... how is this happening? So later in the day I worked up the nerve, and with a straight torso and rigid ankles did 10 proper no-cheat pushups. Even thinking about it now I'm getting tears in my eyes. I don't even know why. I don't even understand why I'm so emotional about it. But ... oh my god. I might be healthy. I might be able to live a healthy life. Oh my god.โ
