How to do it

Distribute your weight evenly across both forearms throughout each tap.

  1. 1

    Start in an elbow plank position with your forearms on the ground and your body in a straight line.

  2. 2

    Tap one foot out to the side, then return to the starting position.

  3. 3

    Alternate with the other foot, tapping out to the side.

  4. 4

    Keep your movements controlled and deliberate.

Expert tip

Focus on keeping your core tight and your body in a straight line to prevent your hips from sagging or piking up.
