TRX Pike

How to do it

  1. Place both feet in the TRX foot cradles and support the body in a high plank on the hands, shoulders over wrists.
  2. Brace the core and keep the legs fully extended as the starting position.
  3. Keeping the legs straight, lift the hips up and back so the straps rise toward the ceiling, forming an inverted V.
  4. Pause briefly at the top, feeling the effort concentrated through the deep abdominals.
  5. Exhale as the hips lift and inhale as the body lowers back to the plank.
  6. Lower under control back to the plank, avoiding letting the lower back sag on the return.
