To perform this exercise, place both forearms on the floor about shoulder width apart with your elbows at a 90° angle. Elevate your body by extending your legs behind you and balancing on your toes, making sure that your back, butt, and legs are all in a straight line. Pull your core nice and tight and hold this for as long as you can.
