- Equipment:
- Floor Based, High Bands
- Applicability:
- Group&Focus

Key Teaching Points:
- 1. End range is where the real work happens — do not shy away from it.
- 2. Exhale into the rotation; inhale to return.
- 3. Establish a stable base before adding any dynamic component.
Regression:
Reduce the load or lever arm. Perform seated to remove the standing stability demand.
Progression:
Increase load, add rotational power by speeding up the concentric, or lengthen the lever arm.
Common Problems:
Collapsing the torso toward the load — reinforce upright posture before the rotation begins.
