    A push-up with uneven hands: one hand is placed ahead of the other, so the hands are offset front to back instead of side by side. Start with the hands wider than the shoulders, the legs straight and about hip-width apar

    An advanced push-up with a very wide hand position. At the bottom, without pressing back up, you slide the body sideways over one hand until the opposite arm is nearly straight and the arm you slide toward is deeply bent
