Video Library: Squat

September 19, 2023 by Phil DeNigris

Video Library: The Push-Up

December 20, 2022 by Phil DeNigris

The push-up is one of the basics of any strength program. It’s a versatile exercise. It can be scaled up or down for most any fitness level. The easiest way to do a push-up is against a wall.
