Instructions

1. Attach a suspension trainer to a secure high anchor point.

2. Adjust the handles so that they are at about waist height when you're standing upright.

3. Face away from the anchor point and grab the handles with both hands at chest level, palms facing each other.

4. Step forward, leaning into the suspension trainer while keeping your body in a straight line from head to heels. This is your starting position.

5. Inhale as you bend your elbows to lower your chest between the handles. Keep your body rigid and straight.

6. Lower down until your chest is in line with your hands or as low as comfortably possible without compromising your form.

7. Hold the bottom position briefly for more intensity if desired.

8. Exhale as you push back up to the starting position, extending your arms fully without locking out your elbows.

9. Perform the desired number of reps, maintaining controlled movement throughout.

10. Make sure to keep your core engaged and avoid sagging your hips or piking them up during the exercise.
