Plank to Push-Up
From the forearm plank, rise onto one hand at a time to the top of a push-up and back down; the hips must not sway.
How to do it
Setup
Forearm plank, body one line.
Steps
- Press up onto one hand, then the other, to a high plank.
- Lower back to the forearms one arm at a time.
- Alternate the leading arm each rep.
Common mistakes
Hips swinging side to side: wider feet, slower steps. Always the same lead arm: alternate or one side does all the work. Sagging mid-transition: the plank never blinks.
Breathing
Exhale rising, inhale lowering.
