Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Foot width affects stability; narrower feet increase the anti-lateral demand.
- 2. Engage the core before initiating any movement.
- 3. Eye gaze forward and level — looking down allows the spine to flex.
- 4. Squeeze glutes to reinforce pelvic neutrality and lower back protection.
Regression:
Perform a static hold (plank or pallof press hold) before adding movement to the drill.
Progression:
Progress to a single-limb support position: one-arm plank, single-leg hold.
Common Problems:
Holding breath for the entire set — cue short sharp exhales every few seconds.
