- 1
Set the suspension straps to about knee height.
- 2
Place your feet in the straps and assume a push-up position with your hands on the ground, shoulder-width apart.
- 3
Lower your chest to the ground, keeping your body straight.
- 4
Push back up to the starting position, fully extending your arms.
- 5
Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
