1. Position a weight plate flat on your back (or have a training partner load it) and place your elbows on the floor directly beneath your shoulders.
2. Brace your core, squeeze your glutes, and lift your hips so your body forms a straight line from head to heels without letting your lower back sag.
3. Hold the position for the targeted duration while maintaining continuous core tension and steady breathing.
