How to perform it

  1. 1

    Start by kneeling on the ground with your hands shoulder-width apart, fingers pointing forward.

  2. 2

    Extend your legs behind you, resting on the balls of your feet, so that your body forms a straight line from head to heels.

  3. 3

    Engage your core and lower your body towards the ground by bending your elbows, keeping them close to your sides.

  4. 4

    Continue lowering until your chest is just above the ground, then push back up to the starting position by straightening your arms.

  5. 5

    Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
