Push-ups
This exercise
works the chest, shoulder, triceps and wrist/ forearm area. Like
the dip, a great exercise for beginners (getting up after catching
a toeside edge) but equally important for injury prevention at all
levels. A strong shoulder complex can be the difference between
a sore shoulder and a dislocation. For advanced try the balance
board version. A lot tougher.
