Alia Bhatt is a bona fide gym rat and her latest quest to hone her fitness makes for some great Monday morning inspo. Let’s take the edge off clap push ups then The fact that Alia Bhatt chose to dedicate a full-blown post to commemorate her progress on her clap push up journey, in a feed that is otherwise almost entirely pooki-fied, is proof enough of the work that’s going into it. But what is the move that she is trying to hone to perfection as she sculpts her chest, abdominals, triceps and shoulders in the process?
A clap push up is a form of plyo pushup which in turn is a subtype of plyometric exercises which focus on “exerting your muscles to their maximum potential in a short amount of time”, as per a Healthline report. It’s actually a high-power crossover between bodyweight-based strength training and cardio, what with it effectively managing to also accelerate your heart rate. A true power move then, perfecting the clap pushup will allow you to sculpt your arms while blasting the fat.
