How to perform it
Start by lying face down on the ground with your legs extended and your hands placed directly under your shoulders. Engage your core and press through your palms to lift your upper body off the ground, keeping your elbows close to your sides. Pause at the top for a moment, squeezing your upper back muscles. Slowly lower your body back down to the starting position. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
