Sit on the edge of a sturdy bench or chair with your hands beside your hips
Place your palms flat with fingers pointing forward
Slide your hips off the edge and support your body with your arms
Keep your feet flat on the floor and knees bent
Straighten your arms to start
Lower your body by bending your elbows until your upper arms are about parallel to the floor
Keep your elbows pointing backward
Press through your palms to straighten your arms and lift your body back up
Repeat for the desired number of reps
Keep your shoulders down and your back close to the bench or chair
Stop if you feel pain in your shoulders or wrists
