Push-Up Pike Toe Touch
A push-up, then the hips pushed high into a pike so one hand can reach back and touch the opposite foot.
How to do it
Setup
High plank on the hands, feet hip-width apart.
Steps
- Complete a full push-up.
- Drive the hips up into a pike and reach one hand back to the opposite foot.
- Lower the hips back to the plank and switch hands.
Common mistakes
Bending the knees to reach the foot: keep the legs long; touch the shin if the toes are too far. Losing the plank on the way down: lower the hips with control. Standing hand collapsing: press the floor away.
Breathing
Inhale lowering, exhale into the pike.
