Push Up Test

Watch the movement, then follow the book’s full procedure and measurement instructions for a formal assessment.

Scale, two rubber agility rings, tennis ball and stopwatch.

Place two rings shoulder-width apart and a tennis ball beneath the chest line. With hands inside the rings, lower until the chest touches the ball and rise until arms fully extend. Count complete repetitions in 60 seconds.

Record the number of technically complete repetitions in 60 seconds. The short clip is not a timed trial.

The demonstration uses a tennis-ball target but does not show the two agility rings required by the book. Treat it as a modified movement demonstration, not a complete setup.

The book lists Push-Up to Single Limb Raise I for the pre-test warm-up. Browse the exercise library for related demonstrations.
