Instructions

1. Begin in a standard push-up position, with your hands placed slightly wider than shoulder-width apart and your body forming a straight line from your head to your heels.

2. As you lower yourself to the ground, simultaneously lift one leg and bend it sideways, trying to touch your knee to your elbow on the same side. Keep your core tight and engaged throughout the movement.

3. Push back up to the start position and return your lifted leg to the floor in its original position.

4. On the next repetition, repeat the leg lift and bend with the opposite leg, touching the opposite knee to elbow.

5. Continue to alternate legs with each repetition, maintaining a controlled motion and proper form throughout the set.

6. Perform for the desired number of repetitions and sets, making sure to keep the intensity high but within your capability to maintain proper form.
