than shoulder width will exercise Pectoralis major, Triceps and Deltoids.  A wider grip from the
push-ups develop Pectoralis major and the Serratus anterior muscle, while narrow grip
push-ups will develop the Triceps muscle and much less the Pectorals major chest muscle. The
regular push-up uses a slightly wider than shoulder width hand placement.

2) Hand palms are the anchor, back, waist and hips shall be in a straight line both with arms
outstretched and with elbows bent.
