Set-up: Set up with your hands wider than shoulder width. With the toes together and hips up, establish proper upper body posture with a neutral back.
Lift: Press the chest off the floor until the arms are straight, then return to the starting position. Cue the descent by attempting to 'pull' yourself down to the floor with your shoulder blades.
Emphasis: Don't allow the hips or the lower back to sag. Use a complete range of motion, bringing the chest to the floor. Don't push the head forward to the floor.
