Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Breathe consistently — match breathing to movement rhythm.
  2. 2. Quality of movement always takes priority over speed or load.
  3. 3. Avoid compensation patterns; if form breaks, address the limiting factor.
  4. 4. Engage the core before initiating any movement.

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:

Leaning away from the load instead of resisting it — reinforce the neutral position with external feedback.
