Knee push-up is a regression of Push-ups. Use the written card above for its exact setup and execution.

Long range: Long range means the target muscle is challenged as it reaches a longer position.

WHY IT EARNS A SPOT

Own the position,
then earn the load.

The hands press the floor away while the chest and triceps move the body as one unit; changing the incline, depth, or load scales the same pattern.
