How do you perform Dolphin Push Up?
- Start in a low plank position with your elbows on the floor and your forearms flat on the floor.
- Your hips and legs just barely touch the ground.
- Push your hips up and lift your head forward and down to get into an inverted V position.
- Try looking at your toes.
- Lower your body by bending your elbows until your chin almost touches the floor.
- Push yourself back up by contracting your triceps until you’re back in the inverted V position.
- Inhale as you go down and exhale as you come up.
Common faults
- Not straightening your back when rising.
- Hips sink too low to the floor.
- Hips remain too high while in the low plank position.
- Head too far forward or back. Your head should be in line with your back.
- Arms not straight when rising.
- Elbows not bent enough on landing.
