Dolphin Push Up Exercise - Bodyweight Training 049
Now here's a super cool push up variation that mainly targets your shoulders and upper back called a Dolphin Push Up. Be sure to properly warm up your shoulders and hamstrings before you get into it as your shoulders will be moving through a large range of motion and your hamstrings will be getting a good stretch. If you have tight hamstrings don't worry you can do this exercise to with your knees slightly bent. I really enjoy doing this one and personally I think it feels great and I also like that it is such an unusual and often unknown push up :)
Please watch the video to learn what this exercise looks like and how you can perform it yourself during your next workout!

Looks great, thanks
estoy inspiro en él desde su puesto.Gracias por tu publicación.
Gracias y bienvenido :)
That's actually good for your core and will target your shoulder and traps. I wonder how more intense it would be if you were to posture up on full extended arms. That would kill your lats for sure.
I haven't seen this with straight arms but I have seen it done in a forearm handstand push up.
it can be a good beginners exercise who want to progress to the Hand Stand Push-Up exercise.
