Pushups - Keep shoulders depressed?

Hello everybody,

short question concerning the first two HBP progression: Should I concentrate to not elevate the shoulders while moving up? How much elevation is ok? Or should I not be concerned at all with elevation/depression?

I first thought elevation is bad at all, but in the technique video of PE2, the woman is not keeping the shoulders depressed (as far as I can see it correctly).

 

Greetings :)

Hi Fabio,

For all of the F1 HBP progressions you want to keep your shoulders depressed. Please post a form check video of your push-up form to be sure you have the correct position.
