How to do:

1. Start in a high plank position with your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart. 2. Keep your body straight from head to heels, engaging your core. 3. Lower your body until your chest nearly touches the ground. 4. Push back up to the starting position, fully extending your arms. 5. Repeat for 10–15 reps per set. 6. Perform 3-4 sets total.

Tips:

- Keep your core engaged to avoid sagging hips. - Maintain a straight line from your head to your heels. - Lower your body in a controlled manner to maximize effectiveness. - For a challenge, elevate your feet or add a clap at the top of the movement.
