The name is a bit braggadocious, we know. But the world’s greatest stretch is legit. This dynamic exercise—which involves getting into a kneeling lunge with one palm on the ground, driving the other elbow down toward the ground, then raising that arm up toward the ceiling as you rotate your trunk—stretches a whole bunch of things at once, making it an efficient, effective way to simultaneously loosen lots of tight muscles.

But with so many different kinds of workouts out there, the decision of which one to pick may seem daunting. Repeat after us: There’s no wrong way to exercise, and no “right” way to work out! You still might find one type of workout will be more palatable to you than others—and remember, the workouts you enjoy doing are way more likely to be the ones you continue with.

Sure, the push-up is a bodyweight exercise, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy—in fact, it can be really challenging to master. That’s why push-up modifications (basically, less intense versions of the OG exercise) are so useful. These variations ease up the challenge by reducing the amount of load you have to push with each rep, while allowing you to practice the movement pattern and build the strength you need to crush a full one.
