How to do it

  1. Start in a full push-up position with your hands under your shoulders and your body in a straight line.
  2. Lower yourself all the way down until you are flat on the floor, then lift your hands and feet off the ground at the same time, arching gently so your chest and thighs hover - like a sky diver in free fall.
  3. Place your hands back down and press yourself all the way up to the start.
  4. The hand lift is the honesty check here: if your palms can't leave the floor, you were resting on them.
