Strength / Bodyweight
A moving transition between downward dog and a high plank: the hips travel from high to level and back, so the shoulders and trunk work through a full range instead of holding one position.
Bodyweight
intermediate
compound
Set up in downward dog with the hips high and the hands shoulder-width apart.
Shift the weight forward and lower the hips until the body forms a straight line in a high plank.
Hold the plank for a moment with the ribs down and the glutes engaged.
Press the floor away and lift the hips back up into downward dog.
Continue alternating for the desired number of repetitions.
Choose a load and range you can control. These instructions are general guidance, not a substitute for individual coaching.
