Starting Position
- sit down at the end of the seat area of a solid chair or something comparable
- grasp the edge of the seat area next to your bottom with both hands
- the backs of your hands are turned forwards
- keep your back straight as you stretch your arms almost fully and let your bottom leave the seat area
- your knees are angled to 90 degrees
- place the feet soles a bit further ahead in front of the seat and completely on the ground
- the feet are hip-width apart
Correct Execution
- let your body sink down to the ground slowly by bending your arms
- the upper arms are nearly parallel to the ground then
- do not touch the ground, rather bring the body back up again in a controlled motion
- try to keep your back straight and stay close to the additive
- your sight is always turned straight ahead
- do not let the elbows wander outwards too much
- stop the movement when there still is a little bending in the arms
- repeat this exercise several times
