Instructions

• With the parallettes about shoulder width apart, start by squatting between the parallettes and then lifting your torso off the ground getting your arms straight
• Pushing away from the ground with your shoulders, lift your feet off the ground and support your weight with your arms
  • Your body may move back slightly to maintain balance, this is fine (hips moving rearward of your wrists)
• Hold this position for the desired amount of time

Key points:

• Keep your arms locked, do not bend them!
• Keep your scapular muscles engaged by pushing away from the ground. Try not to let your shoulders sag towards your ears
