Push-ups against the wall are a simple exercise, very suitable for beginners or people who are less active. Compared to push-ups on the floor, this movement is lighter but still helps strengthen the muscles of the hands, chest and shoulders.
How to do it: Stand straight, face facing the wall. Place both hands on the wall shoulder-width apart. Legs shoulder-width apart, standing about 50-70 cm away from the wall.
Inhale slowly through your nose, for about 5 seconds slowly bend your elbows, bring your chest close to the wall. Keep your back straight and your heels always touching the ground.
Then exhale slowly through your mouth, taking about 5 seconds to push yourself back to your starting position. Repeat the movement continuously for about 1 minute.
This exercise can be done easily at home. Not only does it help maintain and strengthen muscles, limit muscle atrophy, the movement also supports better blood circulation, helping the body receive enough oxygen and nutrients. With a short time and moderate intensity, the exercise hardly increases blood pressure significantly or puts pressure on the kidneys.
