and your arms are almost completely extended (also see Chapter 5.5.

Let yourself sink until the handlebars are almost at the height of your chest and
your upper arms in a horizontal position. Breathe in during this motion. Maintain
this position momentarily.

Now contract your arm and chest muscles, and slowly lift yourself upwards until
your arms are almost completely straight. Make sure not to hyperextend your
