How to do it

Screw your hands outward against the handles to stabilize the shoulders.

  1. 1

    Set the suspension handles close to the ground.

  2. 2

    Assume a push-up position with your hands in the handles and feet spread wide.

  3. 3

    Lower your body in a controlled motion, keeping your elbows close to your sides.

  4. 4

    Push back up to the starting position, maintaining a tight core.

  5. 5

    Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.

Expert tip

Keep your body in a strong plank position and control the descent to prevent sagging or piking at the hips.
