    Start in a standing position and bend your knees and place your hands on the ground.
    Extend your legs back into a push up position.
    Bring your knees back in towards chest and stand back up.

    Fullbody circuit workout tips:
    This exercise trains every muscle in your body especially the chest triceps low back abs and glutes. To prevent low back pain or injuries contract the abs and shoulder blades when you kick the feet back, contract the glutes when spreading the feet apart, and remember that you can sub a 1/2 pushup and work up to a full one when ready.     <TD vAlign=top bgColor=#eeeeee><TABLE borderColor=#ffffff cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width="100%" border=1><TD vAlign=top align=middle width=20 bgColor=#eeeeee>Sets <TD vAlign=top align=middle width=80 bgColor=#eeeeee>Reps<TD vAlign=top align=middle width=80 bgColor=#eeeeee>Weight/

    1. Place the right knee forward and extend the left leg back. Make sure that the right toes are facing in on an angle and the left toes are pointed and facing down. Place the hands on either sides of the knee and shift the weight over to the left while lengthening the spine.
    2. Square the hips and the shoulders. Move the right foot away from the groin working towards a 90-degree angle with the right calf. The right hip may or may not be connected the floor. The left hip is facing down towards the floor. If there is too much pressure in the knee, readjust the calf.
    3. Replace this posture with the modified pigeon. Inhale and lengthen the spine, exhale and lower down onto the elbows maintaining the weight shift over to the left hip. Rock from side to side to help to increase the circulation in the hip joint.
    4. Only if you are incredibly flexible in the hip, start to work your chest down to the floor extending your arms out in front of you. The left hip, thigh, calf and top of foot is facing towards the floor. Relax the head, neck, shoulders and face. Breathe into the hip and back body. Relax in this pose for 5 to 15 deep breaths. Repeat on the other side.
