Ann-Marie certainly worked hard on Monday, here are my very favourite press ups which open the pecs in 3 planes making them super functional! Yay! If you suffer with that little bit of softness just by your armpit you will love what these press ups do! They lengthen the pec maximally which will open your chest and get your back working as well, which means you will have long toned muscles and posture a ballet dancer would be proud of!

Simply start in a plank position, take your left hand up a hand space, left a hand space, then turn it away from you, then lower into your press up. try 5 on each side and notice the difference.

To make this a beginner friendly exercise try it on your knees or on the kitchen counter. Then to make it harder alternate each hand!

Good Luck!
