Step by step instructions, muscle activation and variants for the Child Pose Push-Up.
A flowing mobility exercise that transitions from child's pose through a low push-up arc and back, opening the chest and shoulders while gently stretching the spine and lats. It combines elements of yoga and calisthenics to improve upper-body range of motion.
The Child Pose Push-Up is a foundational movement that builds strength and muscle through controlled, progressive overload. Train it 1 to 2 times per week with 3 to 5 working sets per session, gradually adding weight or reps as form holds up.
