How to: Dumbbell Deep Push up and Renegade Row
- Start in a push-up position with a dumbbell in each hand.
- Lower your body into a push-up, keeping your elbows close to your body.
- Push back up and, at the top, lift one dumbbell towards your rib cage as you stabilize with the other arm.
- Alternate arms with each rep.
Common Mistakes
- Allowing hips to drop, which can strain the lower back.
- Not keeping the weights under control while rowing.
- Twisting the body rather than maintaining stability.
Modifications
- Perform the exercise on your knees instead of feet to reduce intensity.
- Use lighter dumbbells if you struggle with maintaining form.
Tips
- Engage your core to keep your body stable during the movement.
- Avoid letting your hips sag; maintain a straight line from head to heels.
- Focus on a controlled movement rather than rushing through repetitions.
