- Start in a push-up position, then walk your feet in and raise your hips so your body forms an inverted V.
- Place your hands a little wider than shoulder-width with your head between your arms.
- Bend your elbows to lower the top of your head toward the floor just in front of your hands.
- Press back up to straight arms, keeping your hips high.
