Perfect One-Arm Push-Up Technique
The one-arm push-up represents the pinnacle of bodyweight pushing strength, requiring exceptional unilateral power, core stability, and anti-rotation control. ChAIron's AI coaching ensures perfect progression and bilateral balance development.
Step-by-Step Form Guide
- Wide Stance: Start with feet wider than shoulder-width for stability, working arm centered under chest
- Non-Working Arm: Place free arm behind back or at side to prevent assistance
- Controlled Descent: Lower body as one unit, maintaining rigid core and preventing rotation
- Power Drive: Push through working arm to return to starting position, maintaining perfect alignment
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Allowing torso rotation during the movement
- Using the non-working arm for support or balance
- Stance too narrow leading to instability
- Partial range of motion
- Attempting exercise before adequate bilateral strength
