6. Bring your left elbow up to meet your right knee.
7. Return your right leg down to 45-degrees and lift the left knee into a 90-degree angle.
8. Repeat steps 4 and 5 with your left knee and right elbow.
Speed is not the name of the game here; go slowly to focus on your form and your breathing.
Also, it is not necessary to touch your elbows to your knees as this could cause strain in your neck.
