Stand next to the pole, placing your hands on it; one hand should be high above your head and the other at chest level, both gripping the pole tightly.
Lift your feet off the ground, using your upper body strength to hold yourself up, and straighten your body, aligning it parallel to the ground.
Hold this position for as long as you can, keeping your body rigid and your grip strong.
Lower yourself back to the ground slowly and carefully, avoiding any sudden movements that might cause injury.
