Suspended Pushup is an effective chest exercise that targets the chest, shoulders, and triceps muscles and is challenging to the core and upper back.

Step 1
Attach the TRX securely to the bar and grasp the handles with an overhand grip and get into a push-up position so that your body forms a straight line from your shoulders to your ankles.
Step 2
Tightening your body, slowly lower yourself to the floor. Keep your elbows bent at your sides so that they form a 45-degree angle with your torso. Pause here and then return to the starting position.

Suspended Pushup targets Delts, Pecs, Shoulders, Triceps as seen below.

Keep your core tight and your back straight throughout the movement.
Hold at the bottom for a few seconds, then push your body back.
Don't let your elbows open. Keep your elbows close to your sides throughout the exercise.
