How to perform it
Place your hands on the ground slightly wider than shoulder-width apart, with your feet elevated on a stable surface. Keep your body in a straight line from head to toe, engaging your core muscles. Lower your chest towards the ground by bending your elbows, keeping them close to your body. Push through your palms to extend your arms and return to the starting position. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
