Dose76:: Lie on your stomach & then come up on your elbows (they should be aligned with your shoulders) & knees. Next lift knees off ground so you just maintain contact with ground through toes & elbows/forearms. DO NOT let your back arch but rather keep it slightly higher than your bottom & keep abs contracted like someone is punching you. Hold 10s to 45s. Rest & repeat until fatigued.
