Wall Pushup
The wall pushup is great for building core strength, anterior chest wall muscles, and triceps. This modified pushup is easier and more accessible than the classic pushup, making it a better option for many people.

Step 1: Stand and place your arms straight out in front of you with your elbows locked and your hands on a wall.
Step 2: Slowly lean into the wall while bending your elbows until your face almost touches the wall. Push back out and straighten your arms.
Step 3: This counts as 1 repetition. Try to perform 3 sets of 15 repetitions.

To increase the exercise intensity, you can push off a counter or a stabilized chair. Be sure to move slowly and carefully while keeping your back straight.
