Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Knees hover one inch off the floor; this baseline creates foundational tension.
  2. 2. Knees track directly under hips and hands directly under shoulders at the start.
  3. 3. Breathe consistently — match breathing to movement rhythm.
  4. 4. Quality of movement always takes priority over speed or load.

Regression:

Place a light weight on the lower back and focus on not letting it fall before adding movement.

Progression:

Increase the lever arm — extend limbs further before adding load or movement.

Common Problems:

Collapsing into the supporting shoulder — press the floor away actively.
