How to do it

- Keep your body in one straight line and your shoulders over your hands.
- Bend only at the elbows to lower your forehead toward your hands, keeping your upper arms still.
- Push through your palms to straighten your arms back to the start.
Coaching cues
- Walk your feet closer to the surface to make it easier.
- Keep your ribs down so your lower back does not arch as you lower.
