September Week 4 Exercise and Stretch

September Week 4 Exercise 

Triceps Push-Ups

1. Lie on the floor face down and place your hands closer than shoulder width for a close hand position.
2. Lower yourself until your chest almost touches the floor as you inhale.
3. Using your triceps and some of your pectoral muscles, press your upper body back up to the starting position and squeeze your chest. 
4. After a second pause at the contracted position, repeat the movement.

• If you are new at this exercise and do not have the strength to perform it, you can either bend your legs at the knees to take off resistance or perform the exercise against the wall instead of the floor.
• For the most advanced lifters, you can place your feet at a high surface such as a bench in order to increase the resistance.
