push-up

Prone arm exercise

A push-up is an exercise performed by lying face down and raising the body by straightening the arms, then lowering by bending them: I do fifty push-ups every morning.

The movement builds chest, arm, and core strength.

A push-up bra lifts and shapes the breasts by padding from below.
