Try to straighten your legs completely keeping your fingertips on the floor, if you cannot yet stretch your legs totally, that’s ok, but don’t take your hands off the floor. Try to bring your nose as close as possible to your knees. While you rise up, make sure to keep your heels touching and of the floor, don’t put them down.
