Personalize the Challenge to Your Needs
Push-ups can be tough if you haven't done them before, but there are a few ways you can ease into them and steadily increase your core and upper-body strength so that you can do a conventional push-up with good form. Beginners can try a wall push-up, standing against a sturdy surface, or a knee push-up on a flat — hopefully padded! — surface.
On the other hand, if you're already a push-up pro or you happen to get bored throughout the 30 days, there are tons of variations on the standard push-up that can really test your strength. Change up your push-ups from one day to the next with one these 10 different types.
