- Place elbows on floor with fingers pointing forward toward the body – fingers together
- Elbows should be under the shoulders

- Forearms and wrists flat on floor
- Ensure feet are together and toes pointed
- Knees locked
- Pull shoulders back
- Lift chin to extend the line of the body. Don’t drop the head back.
