FitnessDTV Effective Exercises – Incline Push ups

In this edition of FitnessDTV, our Effective Exercise is the Incline Push up. Incline Push ups are a GREAT way to work your chest muscles from a different angle than they are accustomed to.

This particular type of push up is one of the many push up varieties that are included in the P90X 90-Day Extreme Home Fitness Program. The P90X program is based on the concept of “muscle confusion” which is exactly what you are doing with an Incline Push up – forcing your muscles to do something that they aren’t used to doing, which equals growth.

For this and many equally effective exercises, be sure to check out the many push up varieties that are included in the P90X 90-Day Extreme Home Fitness Program.
