How to do it

Stack your top shoulder directly over the bottom one at the peak.

  1. 1

    Start in a high plank position with your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.

  2. 2

    Perform a push-up by lowering your chest to the floor, keeping your elbows close to your body.

  3. 3

    As you push back up, rotate your body and extend one arm towards the ceiling, turning into a side plank.

  4. 4

    Return to the high plank position and perform another push-up, then rotate to the opposite side.

  5. 5

    Alternate the rotation with each push-up for the desired number of repetitions.

Expert tip

Keep your body in a straight line from head to heels and rotate smoothly to maintain form and balance.
