In this concentrated strength drill, you’ll work up to 100 push-ups in four rounds of 25, with one-minute rests between sets. You’re encouraged to choose a “station” that supports good form—elevating your hands on a wall, bench, or blocks if needed—so you can maintain a steady danda line from head, torso, and pelvis through the legs, flexing only at the elbows without distortion. Between rounds, you rest, breathe, and channel the energy stirred up by the work, using the drill to build power for chaturanga, jump-backs, and headstand/forearm balance. The emphasis is on repeating what you want to reinforce: a small thing done well, over and over, instead of forcing harder variations with faulty alignment. **This drill develops:** Chaturanga Dandasana and the upper-body endurance, core stability, and mental discipline needed for strong vinyasas, arm balances, and sustained practice.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
