Start Position:
Lie flat on the ground on your tummy. Place your elbows directly below your shoulders on the ground. Your forearms should be relaxed on the ground. Flex the toes on the floor to get a firm grip.

Exercise:
Now lift the entire body off the ground, balancing on the feet and lower arms. You should feel your abdominals, buttocks and lower back muscles tensing to prevent your body from dropping. Your shoulder blades should be flush with your ribcage. Make sure that your bum does not stick up i.e. make sure your body is in a straight line from your toes to your head. Try to hold this position for 30 seconds then repeat. Increase the amount of time you hold this position for as you get stronger.
