Step by step instructions, muscle activation and variants for the Kneeling Rotational Push-Up.
The kneeling rotational push-up combines a chest press with a trunk rotation, adding an anti-rotation challenge to a standard kneeling push-up. At the top of each rep, you rotate your torso and extend one arm toward the ceiling, engaging the obliques and improving thoracic mobility.
The Kneeling Rotational 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.
