01 / Steps
How to do it
Lying face down on the ground with arms extended.
Lift them so that they don't touch the ground.
The ideal would be for your arms to surpass the height of your head, so if you can't, try to achieve it over time.
Avoid raising the chest off the ground or arching the back.
For greater difficulty and effectiveness, perform it with pelvic retroversion, so that the lumbar is completely straight.
