and upper-body strength after all — and while there are plenty of moves you can do to master a full push-up, certified functional strength coach Kara Lennon has a simple hack to help you do the exercise on your toes as opposed to your knees. All you need is a booty band. In the TikTok above, Lennon directs you to place a booty band around your arms (just above your elbows), and then perform a push-up from your toes. She explained in the comments section that the resistance of the band assists your chest back up and relieves some of the weight from your core. Additionally, she suggested starting with a heavy resistance and working your way to a lighter one. The idea is to progress to doing push-ups without the band and to increase your reps as you use a lighter resistance.
