Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Feet anchored and hip-width apart unless the drill specifically calls for a step.
  2. 2. Maintain upright posture; leaning back or forward offloads the target muscles.
  3. 3. Engage the core before initiating any movement.

Regression:

Use a half-kneeling position to isolate rotational demand with reduced lower-body input.

Progression:

Combine with a lower-body load to create a full-chain rotational pattern.

Common Problems:

One arm going slack mid-rotation — keep both arms engaged on the implement throughout.
