Walkover Pushup

It's like a bear doing pushups across a log—strong, steady, and stylish. Walkover pushups build chest, arms, and balance while giving your paws a chance to show off some slick agility. Add a Bulgarian bag for that extra grizzly grind.

Instructions

1. Start in a pushup position with a Bulgarian bag or small platform centered under your chest.
2. Place one hand on the bag and the other on the floor.
3. Lower into a pushup, then press back up.
4. Walk your hands across the bag so the opposite hand is now on the floor.
5. Repeat the pushup on the other side and continue alternating.

Benefits

• Enhances chest, shoulder, and triceps strength.
• Improves unilateral stability and coordination.
• Engages core through shifting movement.
• Can be scaled with or without weight.

Key Points

• Keep your core tight to avoid hip sagging.
• Move your hands deliberately during the walkover.
• Keep shoulders and hips aligned throughout.
• Lower with control to protect your joints.

Common Mistakes

• Letting the hips drop during transitions.
• Rushing the movement and losing form.
• Dropping the chest unevenly in the pushup.
• Using a platform that's too high or unstable.
