Mastering the Tiger-Bend Push-Up: A Test of Strength and Control

The Tiger-Bend Push-Up is a unique variation that challenges both upper body strength and mobility. Start in a standard push-up position with your shoulders stacked directly over your hands. Lower your forearms and elbows toward the floor until your biceps make full contact with your forearms—easier said than done!

Many struggle with this movement at first, so an effective learning method is to begin from the bottom position. Rest your forearms on the floor and “push up” from there. This approach helps engrain the proper movement pattern.

Need to scale it down? Try pivoting from your knees instead of your feet. Want to turn up the intensity? Elevate your feet on a step to increase the challenge. If you experience wrist discomfort, placing your hands on the edge of a step may provide relief.

Master this move, and you’ll build serious triceps, shoulders, and core stability. Give it a shot!
