NO EQUIPMENT

Step by step

  1. Hands under the shoulders, feet wide, body straight, glutes and abs tight.

    01 Hands under the shoulders, feet wide, body straight, glutes and abs tight.

    Avoid: hips piked up to make it easier: the abs switch off.

  2. Tap the opposite shoulder, hand back down, switch, hips still.

    02 Tap the opposite shoulder, hand back down, switch, hips still.

    Avoid: hips swaying with each tap: the core no longer resists rotation.

In short

  2. Tap the opposite shoulder, hand back down, switch
