As I mentioned in my post about pull-ups, relative strength (how strong you are for your own body weight) is important for everyone. Even if you're not a competitive athlete, you move your body every day. Walking up stairs and getting off the couch are examples of how you move your own body in functional ways every day.
Push-ups are a great body weight exercise. Once mastered, there are endless variations to make them harder. Here are just a few of my favorite, plus a few bonus ones from some Instagram readers!
