Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Maintain even pressure through both feet or both hands — no leaning to one side.
  2. 2. Eye gaze forward and level — looking down allows the spine to flex.
  3. 3. Foot width affects stability; narrower feet increase the anti-lateral demand.
  4. 4. Progressive overload is achieved by increasing lever arm, load, or time, not by cheating range.

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:

Position breaks down before the set ends — reduce time or load and rebuild gradually.
