How to do it

  1. Face away from the anchor holding a handle in each hand with your arms straight in front of you.
  2. Walk your feet back until your body is a straight line resting on your toes.
  3. Lower your chest between the handles with your elbows about 45 degrees from your ribs.
  4. Press back to straight arms without letting your hips sag or pike.

Coaching cues

  • Walk your feet closer to the anchor to make the press easier.
  • Squeeze your glutes so your body stays one rigid line.
