Diamond Push Ups
Diamond Push Ups er en styrkeøvelse med egen kropsvægt, der fokuserer på triceps. Diamant-håndpositionen lægger maksimalt pres på triceps, mens bryst og skuldre fungerer som støttemuskler.
Sådan gør du
- Start i en almindelig armbøjningsposition og placer dine hænder samlet under brystet, så dine pegefingre og tommelfingre danner en diamantform.
- Hold dine albuer tæt ind til kroppen, mens du sænker brystet ned mod dine hænder.
- Sænk dig ned, indtil brystet næsten rører dine hænder.
- Pres dig selv op til udgangspositionen ved at strække armene helt ud.
- Gentag øvelsen det ønskede antal gange.
Teknik-tips
- Place your hands together under your chest with index fingers and thumbs forming a diamond shape.
- Keep your elbows tucked close to your ribcage as you lower down.
- Engage your core and glutes to keep your body in a straight line.
- Lower your chest until it nearly touches your hands, then press back up.
Vejrtrækning: Inhale as you lower your body down, and exhale steadily as you press back up to the starting position.
Almindelige fejl
- Flaring your elbows out wide puts unnecessary stress on the shoulder joints instead of targeting the triceps.
- Sagging your hips compromises core stability and strains your lower back.
- Shortchanging the range of motion by not lowering your chest fully reduces the muscle activation.

What should I do if diamond push-ups hurt my wrists?
If you experience wrist discomfort, try performing them on your knuckles or using push-up handles to keep your wrists in a neutral position.
Why do I feel this more in my chest than my triceps?
Feeling it in your chest is normal since it is a secondary muscle, but if it takes over entirely, check that your hands are not placed too high up on your chest.
How often can I do diamond push-ups in my weekly routine?
2 to 3 times per week with at least one rest day in between is plenty for most beginners to recover and build strength.
