How to do it

Bird Dog, step by step

  1. 01

    Start on all fours with your hands under your shoulders and your knees under your hips.

  2. 02

    Tighten your stomach so your back stays flat like a tabletop.

  3. 03

    Reach your right arm forward and your left leg straight back at the same time.

  4. 04

    Hold for a moment, keeping your hips level rather than letting them tip.

  5. 05

    Return to all fours and repeat with the other arm and leg.

Progress in reps, not guesses.

With nothing on the bar, reps are the target. Match your best and the next workout asks for one more.

Fall short and Trainlike eases the reps back instead of the weight, then rebuilds from there. Every verdict opens the receipt behind it.
