Movement without special equipment

1. Complex of three push-ups

With this complex you can train all parts of the chest muscles one by one. Each of these exercises was explained in detail by Lifehacker in this article.

  • Do a push-up with your feet in an elevated position. This exercise works the upper part of the pectoral muscles.
  • Immediately after, do a push-up on the floor with your arms wide apart. The arms are flush with the shoulders. This type of push-up pumps up the middle part of the pectoral muscles.
  • In the last push-up of the set, the arms are held in an elevated position. This will load the lower part of the pectoral muscles.

If you want it more difficult, put a backpack with dumbbells or other weights on your back. The most important thing is that the backpack fits snugly against your back and doesn’t move during the push-ups. A hiking backpack that attaches to the body with additional closures is a good idea.
