How to perform it
Start by standing with your feet shoulder-width apart and your arms extended straight out to the sides. Slowly lean forward, keeping your arms straight, until your upper body is parallel to the ground. Engage your core and hold this position for a few seconds. Return to the starting position by pushing through your feet and standing back up. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
