By lifting one leg, you challenge your stability, core strength, and upper body muscles all at once. This move works the chest, triceps, shoulders, and core, while also improving balance and control.<\/p>\n<h3>How to Do Single-Leg Push-Ups<\/h3>\n<p>In the video, Fitz demonstrates the correct way to perform this exercise:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Start in a high plank position, with hands under shoulders and feet hip-width apart.<\/li>\n<li>Engage your core and lift one leg slightly off the ground, keeping it straight.<\/li>\n<li>Lower your chest toward the floor by bending your elbows, keeping your body in a straight line.<\/li>\n<li>Push back up to the starting position, maintaining control and balance.<\/li>\n<li>Switch legs halfway through or after completing 10 reps per side.<\/li>\n<li>Repeat for 20 reps, staying strong and steady!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3>Why These Are a Game-Changer<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Upper Body Strength: Builds power in the chest, shoulders, and triceps.<\/li>\n<li>Core Stability: Forces your abs and obliques to work harder.<\/li>\n<li>Balance &amp; Coordination: Engages stabilizing muscles for better control.<\/li>\n<li>Increased Difficulty: Adds a new challenge to standard push-ups!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Fitz\u2019s Encouragement &amp; Tips<\/h3>\n<p>Fitz brings her signature energy and motivation, reminding you to keep your hips level and engage your core for stability. She encourages viewers to modify if needed but to challenge themselves to complete all 20 reps!<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re looking for a next-level push-up variation, this move will test your strength and balance like never before!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>20 Single-Leg Push-Ups with Fitz: A Core &amp; Upper Body Challenge What Are Single-Leg Push-Ups?
