The Bosu kneeling push up is a versatile exercise that combines elements of a traditional push up with the added challenge of balancing on a Bosu ball. To perform this exercise, start by kneeling on the ground with your hands placed on the flat side of the Bosu ball. Keep your arms straight and your core engaged as you slowly lower your chest towards the ball, bending your elbows. Push back up to the starting position and repeat for several reps. This exercise targets the chest, shoulders, and arms while also engaging the core for stability. It can be modified for different fitness levels by adjusting the height of the Bosu ball or performing the push up on your toes instead of your knees.
