How to do it

  1. Start in a high plank position with hands shoulder-width apart and legs extended.
  2. Engage your core and maintain a straight line from head to heels.
  3. Lift one leg towards the ceiling, keeping it straight.
  4. Hold the raised position for a moment, then lower back down.
  5. Alternate legs and repeat for the desired number of reps.
