angle.

  • Keep the knees behind the toes and use the arms for                                                                 balance. Most of your weight should be in your heels and not in the toes.

  • -Start in the Tall Plank position with hands elevated on a bench, step or anything firm and about 12" high.

  • - Keep the legs straight (for the advanced position) and the core tight, not letting the lower back become sway. 
  • Slowly lower yourself towards the bench by bending the elbows. keep approximately 2-4 inches above. 
  • Push back up using the Chest and triceps muscles to the initial Tall Plank position.
