Start in a push-up position with your hands shoulder-width apart and your body in a straight line. Lower your body towards the ground by bending your elbows, keeping your core engaged. Push back up to the starting position. Shift your weight onto your left hand and rotate your body to the right, lifting your right arm towards the ceiling. Hold the side plank position for a few seconds, then return to the starting position. Repeat the push-up and side plank on the opposite side. Continue alternating sides for the desired number of repetitions.
