3. Then, bend your elbows up and down like normal push-ups while maintaining a straight position from your head to the knees.

Repeat this exercise in sets of 2 with 16 repetitions. Take some rest for 1 minute. 

Step-ups

1. To start, place your entire right foot onto the bench or chair or step in the home. Press through your right heel as you step onto the steps, bringing your left foot to meet your left so you are standing on the steps.
2. Return to the starting position by stepping down with the right foot, then the left so both feet are on the floor.
3. Complete 15 steps leading with the left foot, then repeat another 15 steps leading with your left foot. Do three sets.
