This is the first progression where you will balance your whole bodyweight with your upper-body muscles. To make it easier you will tuck in your feet close tou your chest to make the leverage of your weight relatively small. Squat down and place your hands on the ground in shoulder with in front of you. Your fingers should face forward or may be twisted outwards by 45 degrees. Your elbow pits facing forward and your arms locked straight. Your scapula protracted (the shoulderblades spread apart on your back and your shoulder pressed down and away from your ears). Start leaning forward to the point where your feet raises from the ground. Hold this position.
