- Start standing on the platform with your feet hip-width apart.
- Reach overhead to grip the handles with your palms facing in.
- Soften your knees, then simultaneously drive your butt back as if you're closing a door behind you while pulling your arms straight down past your hips until your hands pass by the side of your knees.
- Next, bring your arms back overhead while thrusting your hips forward until you're standing with your arms fully extended.
- Repeat for reps, time or distance.
