About

Keep your arms in a straight line so that you don't strain your shoulders and focus on your core so that your hips don't touch the floor!

How to Reverse Plank

Starting Position

1. Please sit with your legs stretched out on the floor.

2. Place your hands on the floor about a fist's distance away from your hips.

Proper Form

1. Sit with your knees straight and place your hands behind your shoulders, with your fingertips facing forward for support.

2. In that position, lift your hips so that your head, abdomen, and legs form a straight line.

3. Be careful not to tilt your head back and maintain tension in your whole body for the given time.

Breathing Technique

Exhale when you lift your hips and inhale when you lower your body.

Precautions

Keep your shoulders and back straight while lifting your body, and engage your core.
