- Contraindications:
- None
- Equipment:
- Floor Based
- Applicability:
- Focus
- Superset?:

- Sprint-able?:

Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Neutral spine throughout; no rounding or hyperextension.
- 2. Eye gaze forward and level — looking down allows the spine to flex.
- 3. Breathe in short, sharp bursts — do not hold breath for the full set.
Regression:
Reduce resistance or duration by 30% and prioritise a perfect position over grinding through.
Progression:
Add a dynamic component while maintaining the static resistance: hip tap, shoulder tap, or arm reach.
Common Problems:
Lower back extension substituting for core tension — cue rib cage down and posterior pelvic tilt.
