Begin to lower yourself to the ground, maintaining fully extended legs and feet together. Keep your elbows at roughly a 45 degree angle—not flared completely out nor in a straight line with your upper arms.
- Lower yourself until the top of your head grazes the ground. Once the bottom position is achieved, push through the hands, keeping your legs straight, and glutes and core tight, and return to the starting position. Repeat for the recommended number of repetitions.
