How To Do An Alternating Sliding One Arm Push Up
The alternating sliding one arm push up is an excellent
pushup progression towards completing the one arm push up.
This advanced
push up variation requires a lot of
core,
chest, and
triceps strength.
To get started:
- Start by placing a 1 or 2 small towels on the floor.
- Place the sliding hand on the towel and start in the pushup position with your hands directly below your shoulders.
- While keeping your core tight, slide your hand as far in front of you as you can while bending your other elbow to lower your body close to the floor.
- Slide your hand back to the starting position while pushing up with your other arm.
- Place the other hand on the towel and repeat.
Beginner Variation
If the sliding one arm push up is too difficult, progress up to it by completing alternating staggered push ups, by having one hand a foot a head of the other, and complete the push up.
