Archer Push-Up

Upper body Advanced

A wide, unilateral push-up that loads one arm at a time, building the single-arm strength that leads to one-arm push-ups.

How to do a Archer Push-Up

  1. Take a wide high plank with hands well outside shoulder width.
  2. Brace your core and keep your body in a straight line.
  3. Lower toward one hand by bending that elbow while the opposite arm extends straight.
  4. Press back up through the working arm to the top.
  5. Alternate sides and keep hips square, avoiding twist or sag.
