How To Perform the Diamond Push Ups

  1. Start in a standard push-up position with your body straight and hands placed close together under your chest, forming a diamond shape with your thumbs and index fingers touching.
  2. Engage your core and keep your body in a straight line from head to heels.
  3. Inhale as you lower your chest towards your hands by bending your elbows, keeping them close to your body.
  4. Lower until your chest nearly touches your hands, ensuring your elbows do not flare out.
  5. Exhale as you push back up to the starting position, fully extending your elbows.
  6. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
