How to do Circle Reverse Push Ups
Begin in a push-up position with hands slightly wider than shoulders. As you lower, shift body weight in a circular motion, first to the right and then the left, forming a semi-circle. Press back up. On the next rep, reverse the direction.
Common mistakes
Keep a tight core to prevent sagging hips or elevated buttocks. Ensure movements are controlled and smooth, avoiding abrupt shifts.
Breathing
Inhale as you lower and circle; exhale when pressing up. Alternate directions each rep.
