Stand with the feet wide apart and the outer edges parallel.
Place the hands on the hips, lift the chest and hinge forward from the hip joints.
Bring the hands to the floor under the shoulders and let the head hang.
Hold the fold for the prescribed time, shifting the weight slightly into the balls of the feet.
Bring the hands back to the hips and come up with a flat back.
