Clapping Push-Ups are perfectly suited for the development of not only the power qualities of the athlete, but also perfectly develop the speed of the target muscle groups. It is important to perform exercises keeping the body straight. So you can maximally load your triceps, shoulders and pectoral muscles, without removing the load from them with the help of momentum. Also abs are actively included in the work while holding the maximally straight body.

The technique of performing the exercise: Clapping Push-Ups are perfectly suited for the development of not only the power qualities of the athlete, but also perfectly develop the speed of the target muscle groups. It is important to perform exercises keeping the body straight. So you can maximally load your triceps, shoulders and pectoral muscles, without removing the load from them with the help of momentum.
