Step by step

  1. 1Start in a plank with your hands under your shoulders.
  2. 2Bring your right knee forward toward your right elbow then bend your elbows and lower down, just as far as feels okay.

What you should feel

Let your belly hold you up.

Form tips

  • Elbows hug in toward your ribs. Back leg strong, heel pressing back. Feel the chest, triceps and obliques firing.
  • Keep your neck long… gaze down.
  • Breathe slowly… stay as low as feels safe.

Make it easier

If this is too much, drop your back knee to the floor.

Coming out of it

On your next exhale… step your foot back… and lower to your knees.

Muscles it works

Move slowly and stop if anything hurts. This is general guidance, not medical advice; check with a professional if you're injured or recovering.
