CONDITIONING DRILL 1, MODIFIED EXERCISE 5: MODIFIED SINGLE-LEG PUSH-UP

The single-leg push-up is modified by performing the modified push-up in the six-point stance. The Soldier assumes the starting position using the hands to assist in lowering the body, and then stepping back into the six-point stance (Figure 6-92). Range of movement may be limited throughout the exercise. The Soldier gradually increases the range of motion (Figure 6-93) and works toward the standard execution of the exercise, then progresses performance to standard.
