Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Progressive overload is achieved by increasing lever arm, load, or time, not by cheating range.
  2. 2. Eye gaze forward and level — looking down allows the spine to flex.
  3. 3. Quality of movement always takes priority over speed or load.

Regression:

Use a wall for hand or shoulder support to reduce the stability demand of the position.

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.
