Bored of the usual push-ups? Try these extreme push-up exercises for strong, toned arms.
Alternating push-ups
Position yourself in a push-up position placing one hand on top of the medicine ball and the other hand on floor, slightly wider than shoulder-width away.
The arm that has the hand on the ball should be slightly bent. Perform a push-up by lowering your body down.
As you straighten up, rapidly roll the ball under your body to the other hand, then perform another push-up again.
Repeat this sequence for as many as you can in the recommended amount of work time.
