Instructions

Proper Position

  • Start in a plank position with your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart and your feet hip-width apart.
  • Lift your hips to form an inverted "V" shape, keeping your arms and legs straight. Your hands and feet should remain firmly planted on the ground.

Movement

  • Slowly lower yourself by bending your elbows, bringing your chest close to the ground in a curved motion.
  • Continue by moving your head forward and straightening your chest, until your hips are close to the ground and your back is slightly arched (cobra position).
  • Push your hips back up to return to the starting "V" position.
    Perform the movement fluidly and in control.

Breathing

  • Inhale as you lower and curve your body.
  • Exhale as you push back to the starting position.
