Lighten:
Just hold the push-up position.

Harden:
Additional weight (on the back or arms/legs).

Variant I:
Bring your elbows and knees together under your body, then extend your arm and leg, return to the push-up position before changing sides.
Variant II:
Support both hands on a dumbbell in the push-up position.
