Press-ups, or push-ups, are a classic bodyweight exercise that primarily targets the chest, shoulders, and triceps, while also engaging the core and lower body for stability. This simple but effective move involves lowering your body towards the floor and then pushing back up, building upper-body strength and endurance.

Push-ups can be modified in various ways, such as changing hand placement or elevating the feet, to target different muscle groups or adjust the difficulty level. They’re great for building strength, improving posture, and enhancing overall fitness.
