Instructions

1. Place an elevated surface such as a step, bench, or platform behind you.

2. Start on your knees and place your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart on the floor in front of you.

3. Elevate your feet by placing them on the elevated surface behind you. Your body should form a straight line from your knees to your shoulders.

4. Bracing your core and maintaining a neutral spine, slowly lower your body towards the floor by bending your elbows.

5. Lower yourself until your chest is just above the ground.

6. Push through your hands, extending your elbows to raise your upper body back to the starting position.

7. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions and sets.

Remember to keep a controlled motion and avoid locking out your elbows at the top of the movement. Adjust the height of the elevated surface to modify the difficulty of the exercise. Higher surfaces will increase the difficulty level.
