5 Intense HIIT Workouts For Men To Maintain Fitness

#4 Push-Ups

Along with targeting the pectoral muscles in the chest, push-ups also tone the deltoids, biceps, forearms and the core for a complete upper body workout. Moreover, even beginners and casual trainers could perform this exercise, thanks to its simple motion.

Instructions:

Step 1: Lie on the floor in a prone position. Transition yourself into a plank position and rest the body on the palms and the toes. Ensure that the elbows are close to the body and the lower arms make a 90-degree angle with the upper arms.

Step 2: Raise your torso by flexing your upper arms until the arms are fully extended and perpendicular to the body.

Step 3: Hold for a moment and return to the initial position.

Perform the exercise for the recommended number of times.

Important tip: Perform push-ups with a narrower stance to target the inner pectoral muscles with greater intensity.
