Staggered arm push-ups have long been an exercise which shows extreme fitness.

It takes tremendous core, shoulder and arm strength to perform 1 arm pushups.

This is a version of crocodile or alligator or whatever you want to call them, staggered grip push-ups.

Position yourself on the floor in pushup position. Put one arm forward and the other arm a little lower than your normal push-ups position.

You want to use your arm which is back and close to your body as much as possible.

Try to put as little weight on your upper hand as possible. You can even put your fingers on the ground instead of your palm.

Perform as many reps as you want for 1/2 a set and then do the other side.

Try to place as little weight on your upper hand as possible each time you do this exercise.
