Circuit 2, Exercise 2: Pike Push-Up Begin in a Downward Dog position with your arms straight, hips lifted, and weight spread evenly between your feet and hands. Slowly and with control, bend your elbows outward, lowering the crown of your head toward the floor. Note: do not put any pressure on your head. Straighten your elbows, returning to the starting position. This counts as one rep. Continue for 30 seconds. Tip: To modify, widen your feet to mat-width distance. This will increase stability. You can also do normal push-ups on your toes or knees. Image Source: POPSUGAR Photography / Sam Brodsky
