1. Stair pushup

Ease into stair exercises without taking a step.

• Firmly place your hands on a step. Your hands should be directly under your shoulders.
• Push your toes into the floor and extend your legs into a plank position. You should feel your core (stomach) muscles working.
• Inhale and bend your elbows. Lower your body until your chest is just above the stairs.
• Exhale while straightening your arms and raising your body back to the starting position.
• Keep your neck and back in a neutral position during this exercise. Don't let your hips drop.
