Keeping with the Halloween theme, try this spooky exercise. It can help with flexibility and upper body strength, and relies on your shoulders.
How to do it
- Stand with your feet hip-width apart
- Bend over and place your hands flat on the floor in front of your feet
- Shift your weight so that it primarily focuses on your hands and arms
- Slowly walk your hands forward; avoid bending your elbows
- Keep walking them out until your hands are beneath your shoulders as if you were in a push-up position
- Walk your hands back to the starting position
Tip
- Keep your core and glutes tight as you walk for added benefit!
