Description of exercise The BOSU® push-up is a challenging variation of the traditional push-up that utilizes a BOSU® balance trainer. This exercise requires the individual to place their hands on the flat side of the BOSU® ball and perform a push-up while maintaining balance on the unstable surface. This adds an element of instability, forcing the core and stabilizing muscles to work harder to maintain proper form. The BOSU® push-up targets the chest, shoulders, arms, and core muscles, helping to improve upper body strength, stability, and balance. It can be modified for different fitness levels by adjusting the height of the BOSU® ball or performing the push-up on the knees.
