Step 1

Begin seated on a chair with a dumbbell resting on your thighs. Place your hands on the edge of the chair under your glutes and directly below your shoulders, ensuring that your fingers are facing forwards. Shift your glutes forwards off the chair. This is your starting position.

Step 2

Inhale. Bend your elbows to lower your glutes towards the mat, ensuring that your shoulders, elbows and wrists remain in line with one another.

Step 3

Exhale. Once you have created two 90-degree angles with your arms, push through the heels of your hands and extend your arms to return to the starting position. Avoid using your legs to assist you and always try to maintain an upright position. Repeat for the specified number of repetitions.
