How to Do Incline Push-Up Wide

1. Stand facing a Smith machine bar or sturdy elevated platform at an appropriate height.
2. Place your hands on the bar, with your hands wider than shoulder width.
3. Position your feet back from the bar with arms and body straight. Your arms should be perpendicular to the body. This will be your starting position.
4. Keeping your body straight, lower your chest to the bar by bending the arms.
5. Return to the starting position by extending the elbows, pressing yourself back up.
