Exercise Description

The hover exercise builds rock-solid core strength and stability. It strengthens your abs, shoulders, and glutes while improving posture and reducing back pain.

How To

1. Start in a push-up position with your forearms flat on the ground instead of your hands 2. Keep your body straight from head to toe - like a wooden plank during the hover 3. Engage your core muscles and squeeze your glutes tight 4. Hold the hover position while breathing normally - don't hold your breath 5. Start with 20-30 seconds and work up to 60 seconds as you get stronger

Form Tips

• Keep your head in line with your spine during the hover - don't look up or down • Your hips should stay level - no sagging or piking up • Press your forearms into the ground to activate your shoulders • Focus on squeezing every muscle tight during the hover hold

Common Mistakes

• Letting your hips sag or pike up breaks the straight line of the hover • Holding your breath instead of breathing normally through the hold • Placing your hands too wide or letting your shoulders roll forward during the hover
