01 / Steps

How to do it

  1. Get into a push-up position with your hips elevated. You can do this on the floor or on grips.

  2. Perform arm flexion and, when at the point of maximum flexion, lean your body forward until your feet lift off the ground. Avoid doing this by jumping with your feet, the elevation should come from the inclination.

  3. Return to the starting position to complete one repetition.
