Start the Feet-Elevated Pushups by getting into a pushup position with your hands shoulder-width distance apart. Raise your feet up, and place them on a sturdy surface such as a bench or a box. Keeping your chest tall and core tight, lower yourself under control until your chest touches the ground, then drive yourself up by pushing through your palms. Flex your triceps and chest at the top to finish. Complete 3 sets of 10 to 15 reps.

Judo Pushup

This move is a great variation of the pushup, which also stretches out your core and improves your shoulder mobility. Start by getting in the pushup position. Drive your hips up towards the ceiling, and get a stretch in the hamstrings, swoop down towards the ground, leading with your head by your chest. Right before your body reaches the ground, push yourself back up, flexing your triceps to finish. Perform 3 sets of 10 to 15 reps.
