2. Flex your feet and press your toes into the ground.
3. Put both hands down on the ground with your arms straight and your palms directly under your shoulders.

6. Place one hand behind your ear, bring that elbow to the stationary elbow, then activate the muscles in your upper back and rotate your elbow to the sky.
7. Keep your core turned on, press through the ground with the straight arm, eyes following your elbow, and try to get as open with as much range of motion as possible.
8. Reverse the movement to touch elbows, repeat for reps, then switch arms.
