Instructions

Setup

  • Begin in a standard push-up position, with your hands placed slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.

  • Lift one leg off the ground, keeping it extended straight back, and balance on your hands and the remaining foot.

Movement

  1. While maintaining a straight line from your shoulders to your heels on the ground, inhale and lower your chest toward the floor by bending your elbows.

  2. Keep your core tight and your back flat throughout the movement to avoid arching your lower back.

  3. Stop just before your chest touches the floor.

  4. Exhale and push through your palms to return to the starting position, maintaining the single-leg balance throughout the repetition.
