[...] les pompes piquées mettent l'accent sur les épaules au lieu des pectoraux. [...] Veillez à garder les jambes tendues sur la pointe des pieds, et vos hanches vers le haut. Fléchissez les bras en contrôlant le mouvement jusqu'à ce que votre tête soit proche du sol. Poussez ensuite sur vos mains pour tendre les bras et revenir en position de départ.
