Russian push-ups are a variation of the standard push-up that incorporates a transition to a forearm plank at the bottom of the movement. This added element increases the intensity of the exercise, engaging more muscles and requiring greater coordination and stability. The movement involves a rocking motion, moving from the push-up position to a forearm plank and back.
Starting Position: Begin in a high plank position with hands planted on the ground slightly wider than shoulder-width.
Lowering Phase: Lower your body down to the ground, transitioning your weight forward.
Transition Phase: Move into a forearm plank position while close to the floor.
Final Phase: Push yourself back up to the starting position to complete one repetition.
