None

Floor Based

Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Progressive overload is achieved by increasing lever arm, load, or time, not by cheating range.
  2. 2. Breathe in short, sharp bursts — do not hold breath for the full set.
  3. 3. Engage the core before initiating any movement.
  4. 4. End range is where the real work happens — do not shy away from it.

Regression:

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

Progression:

Combine with an upper-body pull or push to challenge the core against a loaded limb pattern.

Common Problems:

Lower back extension substituting for core tension — cue rib cage down and posterior pelvic tilt.
