Equipment
Extend your arms overhead and keep your gaze forward, maintaining a straight back and engaged core.

Switch sides and perform the same steps with your left foot forward and right leg extended behind.
Pro Tip
Engage Your Core: Engage your core muscles throughout the exercise to maintain balance and stability. This will also help to protect your lower back from strain. A common mistake is to let the belly sag towards the floor, which can lead to back pain. Use Your Arms: Extend your arms above your head to increase the intensity of the exercise. However, be careful not to strain your neck or shoulders. Keep your shoulders relaxed and avoid hunching them up towards your ears. Breathe: Remember to breathe evenly throughout the exercise. It can be easy to hold your breath, especially during challenging movements, but this can lead to dizziness or lightheadedness. Progress Grad
