How to do it

  1. Lie on your back with your knees bent, feet flat on the floor hip-width apart, hands resting on your chest.
  2. Drive through your heels and lift your hips into a bridge.
  3. Holding the bridge steady, reach one arm up and over to tap the floor behind your head, bring it back, then reach with the other arm.
  4. Your hips are the whole game here: they stay lifted and level while the arms move - no dipping, no tilting side to side.
