Coach's Tips

-

Start Position

1. Start in a plank position with your hands placed slightly wider than shoulder-width apart, keep your feet together and engage your core.

2. Maintain a straight line from your head to your heels, with your neck aligned with your spine and your gaze forward.

3. Ensure that your wrists are directly beneath your shoulders, forming a straight line from head to heels.

Proper Form

1. Lower your chest to the floor by bending your elbows.

2. As you descend, slightly lift your hands and fingers off the ground.

3. Once your chest makes contact with the ground, press your hands into the floor and elevate your body back to the starting plank position.

Breathing Technique

1. Take a breath in as you lower your body towards the ground.

2. Exhale while pressing your hands down to lift your body back upwards.

Precautions

1. Keep your elbows close to your body during both lowering and pushing back up.

2. Avoid arching your back or drooping your hips.

3. Remember to engage your core and keep your neck aligned with your spine.
