1 Place your body in pushup position with both legs held tightly together and abdominals held high in the air. Keep your arms a shoulder width apart.

2 Inhale and raise one leg behind you as shown, reaching it backward as far as possible, and hold it there. Try to keep your positioning centered by avoiding the tendency to place more of the body weight on the other foot.

3 Exhale and return your leg to its position. Repeat with the other leg.
