MONSTER BAND PUSH UP

The monster band push up is a stability and strengthening exercise that uses the body weight as resistance. Start by setting up a heavy monster band on J-hooks of a squat rack. Place both of your hands on the band at shoulder distance or wider apart. Support the lower half of your body with balls of your toes placed hip distance apart. Hold a neutral spine and slowly lower the body. Your hands should be at your lower pectoral line at the bottom of the movement. Push up while keeping the core braced.
