'The push-up pulse strengthens the upper back and works the core allowing you the bypass the “hunchback” syndrome seen so commonly at people’s desks. 1. Get into a push-up position on the floor with your neck in a neutral position, core engaged and make sure the elbows never lock. For an easier variation, you can do a modified push-up position with the knees on the floor. Hold for 10 seconds. 2. With a range of motion of only 10 degrees lower yourself slightly to the floor as you squeeze your shoulder blades together. 3. Then push-off from your hands away from the floor while spreading your shoulder blades apart. Think of these as mini shoulder blade crunches. 4. Repeat 10-15 times progressing up to 30 as you develop more strength.'
