Start in a high plank position with hands slightly wider than shoulder-width
Place palms flat on the floor and spread fingers
Keep arms straight and shoulders stacked over wrists
Tighten your core and keep your body in a straight line from head to heels
Point toes forward and keep legs extended with feet hip-width apart
Inhale and lower your chest toward the floor by bending your elbows
Keep elbows at about a 30–45 degree angle from your body
Stop when your chest is close to the floor without touching
Exhale and press the floor away to return to the starting position
Keep your core tight and hips level throughout the movement
Repeat for your desired number of reps
If needed, modify by doing pushups on your knees while keeping a straight line from head to knees
