Push-ups on a bench are a great exercise for people who struggle with completing push-ups on the floor.
- Place your hands on the edge of a bench just beyond shoulder width apart.
- Hold your torso up at arm's length with your toes on the floor. This is your starting position.
- Slowly lower yourself downward until your chest nearly touches the bench.
- Squeeze your chest and slowly press your upper body back to the starting position. Pause briefly at this position. This is one rep.
- Repeat for the desired number of reps.
