How to do it
- Start in a high plank with your hands under your shoulders and your body in one line.
- Keep your hips level with your shoulders.
- Drive one knee towards your chest, then switch legs quickly in a running rhythm.
- Keep your hands planted and breathe steadily.
Watch out: Bouncing your hips up and down — they stay low and level.
