Push Ups

This exercise can be done on your toes or on your knees. Start on your toes (or knees) and hands. Your hands should be directly under your shoulders and your back and legs should fall into a straight diagonal line. 

Now bend your elbows outwards and bring your entire body to the ground. Push yourself up again. Make sure you keep your body in the same position as you go down. 

Do 3 sets of 8 repetitions. Rest for 30 seconds between sets.

Push ups help to strengthen the upper body, including the arms, shoulders and chest. However, they also provide a workout for your abs too!

Do you find that your active lifestyle causes or is hindered by sore muscles or stiff joints? Atrosan Devil’s Claw helps to relieve muscle and joint pain throughout the body, which is great for chronic, long term pain.

Alternatively, Atrogel Arnica Gel is a topical pain relief that can be applied directly to affected areas to soothe stiffness and pain – perfect for when you've overdone it!

Remember to always follow a doctor or physiotherapist’s advice when it comes to exercising with an injury or joint condition.
