2. Drop your right elbow down to floor where your hand was, followed by your left elbow, into forearm plank pose.

3. Bring yourself back to full plank by immediately pushing yourself back up with your right hand then your left.

4. Perform this segment of the exercise for desired amount of repetitions.

5. Thrust your feet off of the platform and onto the floor on each side of the board.

6. Walk your hands back and place them on platform.
