How to do it

Lie facedown with your legs extended and your elbows bent directly under your shoulders, clasping your hands together. Ensure that your feet are hip-width apart and your elbows are shoulder-width apart. Engage your abdominal muscles, then tuck your toes to lift your body off the ground while keeping your forearms on the floor. Your body should form a straight line from your head to your heels.
