The decline push-up is a bodyweight exercise that targets the lower chest, triceps, and shoulders. By elevating your feet on a bench or step, you shift more of your body weight onto your chest and shoulders, increasing the intensity of the exercise compared to standard push-ups.

1. Place your feet on a bench or step and assume a push-up position with your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.
2. Lower your body towards the ground by bending your elbows, keeping your body in a straight line from head to heels.
3. Lower until your chest nearly touches the floor.
4. Push through your palms to return to the starting position, fully extending your arms.
5. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, maintaining proper form throughout the exercise.
