Doing lots of push-ups is a great way to not only strengthen your chest, triceps and biceps, but also lose excess body fat. So, make sure you perform more push-ups not only in the gym but also while you’re at home and in your spare time.

Start doing push-ups by touching the floor with your palms beneath your shoulders while keeping the core straight. Then, slowly lower yourself until your chest is an inch away from the floor and return to the starting position.

2. Pistol Sit-Ups
