How to perform it
Start in a high plank position with your hands wider than shoulder-width apart. Keep your body in a straight line from head to toe. Lower your chest towards the ground by bending your elbows, keeping them close to your sides. Push through your palms to extend your arms and return to the starting position. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
