- None
- Equipment:
- Floor Based, High Bands

Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Eye gaze forward and level — looking down allows the spine to flex.
- 2. Breathe consistently — match breathing to movement rhythm.
- 3. The load creates the demand — if it does not feel like a challenge, increase it.
Regression:
Reduce the lever arm — bring the load closer to the body. Widen the stance for more base stability.
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.
