Downward dog to upward dog pushup

This exercise focuses on increasing strength and mobility through the shoulders and connecting the core and hips.
Start in a downward dog position with your arms and legs completely straight if possible. Frame your ears with your shoulders and feel the hamstrings and calves lengthen, and your back and shoulders activated.
Inhale and nose dive, as your arms bend and your chest slides forward and up rolling onto the top of your toes. Pause with your arms locked straight again, shoulders pulled back, chest open, and eyes looking up toward the sky. Contract the triceps and feel the stretch through your core and hip flexors.
Exhale and drive your hips up and back into the downward dog position. Roll back into your heels with your legs straight, and shoulders and back contract as your core connects into your hips.
