2. PIKE
Step 1
Set up your Rotating Push Up Stands shoulder width apart. Put your feet into the cradles. Apply downward pressure with the tops of your feet by pointing your toes away from your feet away from your shins. Grab the Rotating Push Up Stands. Contract your core, your glutes and quads.
Step 2
Exhale and slowly press yourself upward until your elbows are fully extended, aligning your head and spine (avoid any sagging or aching in your low back or hips hiking upwards). Keep your feet together throughout the exercise and avoid any back and forth swinging of the TRX straps.
Step 3
Upward Phase: Exhale, contract your abdominal muscles and slowly pull your legs towards your chest. Knees must remain extended, knees and ankles in plantar flexion (toes pointed away from your shins). Keep you feet together throughout the exercise. During the movement your hips will rise upwards (your glutes should move towards the ceiling). Continue the movement until your hips move directly over your shoulders in an inverted shoulder press position. Maintain a rigid torso and flat spine, preventing any arching or bowing in the back.
Step 4
Downward Phase: While maintaining your rigid torso, inhale and slowly lower your body towards the starting push-up position, maintaining your head and spine alignment.
