Why I do it: Holy triceps! It's fun to try lifting and lowering both elbows at the same time. It looks like a simple bodyweight move, but it's hard! I also like that the Down Dog part of this exercise offers a nice stretch for my shoulders.
- Begin in Quarter Dog (Downward Dog on your elbows).
- Exhale, and press hands into the mat to straighten your elbows, coming into Down Dog.
- Inhale and lower your elbows gently back to the mat to complete one rep.
