Coach Peabody, counting

Bend down, walk your hands out to a plank, then walk your feet up to your hands.

How to do it

  1. Keep your legs as straight as they will go.
  2. Small hand steps, then small foot steps.
  • Nothing at all
  • A room you can take three steps across.
  • A rug or a mat, and nothing sharp where you put your hands.

Watch out for this

Walk your hands one step further until your body is straight.
Stopping in a V instead of reaching a plank.

Make it fit you

The right version is the hardest one you can still do properly. That is not a kindness, it is how this works.

Easier

  • Bend your knees as much as you like on the way down.

Harder

  • Add one push-up every time you reach the plank.
