How to perform it
Start in a high plank position with your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart. Lower your body towards the ground by bending your elbows, keeping your core engaged. Push through your palms explosively to propel your body off the ground. While in mid-air, clap your hands together before landing back in the starting position. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
