Mountain Climbers
Exercise name: Mountain Climbers
Exercise description:
Starting Position: Begin in a high plank position. Place your hands directly under your shoulders, with your arms fully extended. Your body should form a straight line from your head to your heels. Keep your feet hip-width apart, with your toes touching the ground and heels lifted.
Engage Your Core: Tighten your core muscles by drawing your belly button towards your spine. This helps maintain stability and prevents your hips from sagging.
Knee Drive: Bring your right knee towards your chest, keeping your foot off the ground. Ensure that your back remains straight and your body stays in a straight line.
Switch Legs: Quickly switch legs by extending your right leg back to the starting position while simultaneously bringing your left knee towards your chest. This should be a fluid motion, resembling a running action.
Continue Alternating: Continue to alternate legs in a running-like motion. Aim to keep your hips low and your shoulders stacked over your wrists throughout the exercise. Maintain a steady rhythm and control your movements.
