How to perform Incline Push-Up Reverse Grip
- Use a securely fixed Smith machine bar or a stable bench or box whose near edge allows the reversed hand position.
- On the bar, take a shoulder-width underhand grip; on a flat support, turn your hands so your fingers point back toward your feet.
- Step your feet back and hold your body straight with your arms extended.
- Bend your elbows close to your torso and lower your chest toward the support while keeping your hips aligned.
- Extend your elbows to press back along the same path without changing your hand placement.
