Subject: The “Chasm Push-Up Workout” challenge...
The Chasm Push-Up is great push-up variation.
It’s one of the most effective exercises for building strength & muscle in your chest. Why?...
With the normal push up, the floor limits your range of motion. With the Chasm Push-up, you're able to get deeper into the range of motion, damaging more muscle fibers (which builds strength and muscle mass).
Here’s how to do it.
Find two sturdy chairs and place them in front of an elevated surface. Your feet will be on the elevated surface and your hands will be on each chair (hand position in a normal push up). Slowly drop down into the push up, then press back up.
If this is too easy, you can move the chairs further away from each other. This will create even deeper stretch on your chest.
Here’s an 8 minute workout for you to try that is super challenging and uses the Chasm Push-Up. mixed with other push-up variations.
8 one-minute Intervals: 45 seconds of performing the exercise alternated with 12 seconds rest
- Exercise 1: Chasm Push Up
