Bear Hold
Abdominals · Shoulders · Quadriceps · Bodyweight
How to do it
- Start on your hands and knees, hands under your shoulders and knees under your hips.
- Tuck your toes and lift your knees an inch or two off the floor, keeping your back flat and core braced.
- Keep your hips level with your shoulders, avoiding any pike or sag in your lower back.
- Hold this hovering tabletop position, breathing steadily, without letting your knees touch down.
- Maintain the hold for the prescribed amount of time.
