Technik-Tipps
Engage your core muscles throughout the exercise. This not only helps to maintain the correct form but also protects your lower back from potential strain - a common mistake many people make during scapula push-ups.
The movement in a scapula push-up comes from the shoulder blades moving apart and together, not from the bending of the elbows. Avoid the mistake of doing a standard push-up. Instead, keep your arms straight, lower your body by allowing your shoulder blades to come together, and then push back up by spreading your shoulder blades apart.
