Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Brace as if preparing to take a punch — 360 degrees of core tension.
- 2. Breathe in short, sharp bursts — do not hold breath for the full set.
- 3. The goal is not to move — resist the force trying to pull you out of position.
- 4. If the position breaks down, rest and reset rather than grinding through poor form.
Regression:
Reduce the lever arm — bring the load closer to the body. Widen the stance for more base stability.
Progression:
Increase the lever arm or add external resistance. Introduce a perturbation to make the hold reactive.
Common Problems:
Lower back extension substituting for core tension — cue rib cage down and posterior pelvic tilt.
