Here’s how to do a push-up correctly
In the simplest terms, here’s how to do a push-up. Note that this describes what some call the “military” style push-up, there’s less chance of over-using or injuring your shoulders (as there is with another common style when your arms are wider apart).

1) Kneel on the floor on your hands and knees with your palms flat on the floor in front of you and your fingers facing forward. Your hands should be shoulder-width apart and directly below your shoulders — in other words, you should be perfectly squared up or aligned.
2) Lift your knees off the floor and straighten your legs — the plank position in yoga.
3) Keeping your elbows by your side, bend your elbows to slowly lower your body until your chest or chin touches the floor. Be sure to keep your head and middle (abdomen) in line with your spine and keep your elbows close to your sides.
4) Finish by pushing your body back up from the floor to a rigid plank position. Keep your head, middle and spine in line as you raise your body by keeping tension in your core and glutes. Be sure not to let your hips or back dip toward the ground.
5) Repeat.
