None
Equipment:
Floor Based
Applicability:
Focus

Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. The goal is not to move — resist the force trying to pull you out of position.
  2. 2. Breathe in short, sharp bursts — do not hold breath for the full set.
  3. 3. Eye gaze forward and level — looking down allows the spine to flex.

Regression:

Perform a static hold (plank or pallof press hold) before adding movement to the drill.

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.
