Super Girl (Person) Push-Ups!

Assume the push-up position, the up position.

Make sure your fingers are pointing forward to ease the strain on your wrists, engage your core, drop your shoulders away from your ears and make sure that your spine is a straight line from your neck down to your tailbone.

Lift your right leg off the floor and do a push-up. Return your leg to the floor and lift your left leg, push-up. Repeat for 3 sets of 10 repetitions pressing into child's pose or downward facing dog to rest.

To modify this exercise, stay in the up position of the push-up and alternately lift and lower your legs, exhaling your breath as you lift, inhale as you lower.
