"Push Up" is a single by the British electronic music group Freestylers. The song was co-written by Theo Brehony and Rez Safinia of the pop duo Heist and features vocals from Theo. Released in 2004, it reached number one in the Flanders region of Belgium for seven weeks, number two in Australia and the Netherlands, and number five in New Zealand. In the band's home country, "Push Up" reached number 22 on the UK Singles Chart and topped the UK Dance Chart.

The music video was recorded in various parts of Central London, including Piccadilly Circus. It features Kate Eloise Whitfield in various outfits dancing on the streets near crowds of people.[citation needed] In 2008, the Freestylers mashed-up "Push Up" with the 1986 hit song "Word Up!" by Cameo and released it as "Push Up Word Up" through Data Records.[1]
