Using a wobble board for your push ups can be of extreme benefit. Although it is similar to the BOSU ball workout, this technique is especially useful for the stability of your triceps. The reason is because the device forces your hands to be close together, engaging your triceps in a big, big way (so long as you perform the exercise correctly! See below).
The first step is to lay the board down, flat side up. Place your hands on the edges of the board and get into a good push up position. This includes keeping your back straight, legs straight and abs tight. You can perform an easier version by simply placing your knees on the ground.
Slowly lower your chest towards the board until it's 2-3 inches above the board. Keep your elbows as close to your body as possible! Do not flare them out. This will really blast those triceps and deltoids.
Slowly return to the starting position. Rinse and repeat!!
