How to perform it

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 01Place both feet or knees on a stable box and set the hands shoulder-width apart on the floor.
  2. 02Walk the hands toward the box until the hips stack above the shoulders as closely as your mobility permits.
  3. 03Lock the elbows and push the floor away to keep the shoulder blades elevated.
  4. 04Hold the inverted pike with the ribs controlled, head neutral, and weight distributed evenly through both hands.
  5. 05Walk the hands away from the box and step down carefully when the hold ends or shoulder control fades.
