Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. The goal is not to move — resist the force trying to pull you out of position.
  2. 2. Hips and shoulders should remain in the same plane throughout.
  3. 3. Avoid compensation patterns; if form breaks, address the limiting factor.
  4. 4. End range is where the real work happens — do not shy away from it.

Regression:

Reduce resistance or duration by 30% and prioritise a perfect position over grinding through.

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.
