I did 50 crossbody push-ups every day for a week — here’s what happened

Forget chest presses, the overhead press, or standard push-ups for one moment because crossbody push-ups hit your deltoids, triceps, pectorals, core and legs without weights. 

To do the bodyweight exercise, simply perform a push-up on one of the best yoga mats while extending one leg under and across your body and gently twisting to one side. Easy, right? Having completed 50 reps a day for one week, I can confirm the upper body exercise is anything but “easy.”
