Maryse is performing CPR on one of her athletes. What is the MOST effective way for Maryse to perform compressions?

For effective CPR chest compressions, Maryse should place her hands on the center of the chest and keep her shoulders directly over her hands. This lets her use her body weight to press straight down with controlled, effective compressions. She should keep her arms straight rather than bend her elbows, and use the heel of her hand—not her fingers—to compress the chest.
