Push-ups are another feel-good exercise; after knocking out a few good reps, you'll truly feel like you can take on the world. Beyoncé said girls run the world, but I think she'd agree that girls who do push-ups really feel like queens. Did we mention that push-ups will give your regal self the benefits of a stronger, boosted bust and tighter triceps? We thought that would get a royal notice.
Konforti's Trainer Tip: "There's really no better exercise for targeting the underarms, chest, and shoulders than push-ups. They're a great test of strength that you can quickly see their progress with. Again, alignment is key on push-ups. It's best to start with the kneeling version. Resting your knees on the ground, place your hands directly underneath the shoulders and keep a straight line from your head to your knees. Keeping the elbows in like chicken wings, lower yourself down and press back up through the elbows. To add some spice to this move, try changing your hand positioning every rep so every push-up feels slightly different."
