How to Do
How to Do Three-Point Push-Up
The three-point push-up should begin with good posture to avoid injury. Brace the spine by drawing your lower abdomen inward. Your core muscles should be activated to support your posture as you perform the exercise.
If any pain is experienced, immediately stop the three-point push-up.
