Spiderman Push ups
Spiderman Push ups strengthen the chest and triceps whilst challenging the oblique muscles. Flexibility through the hips is also required. due to the twisting motion the arm opposing the raised leg performs a larger portion of the movement. This increases the required strength of this movement as opposed to a standard push up.
Functional Benefit
Spiderman pushups increase hip flexibility whilst developing strength and core function. These factors combine to make an effective whole body exercise.
