DO

  • Keep neck long

  • Finish each set with clean technique
DON'T

WHAT TO AVOID

  • Do not hold your breath for the entire set.
  • Do not continue after the hips, ribs, or lower back lose position.
  • Do not choose speed over control.

STEP BY STEP

MOVE WITH CONTROL.

  1. Place elbows beneath shoulders and extend both legs.
  2. Push forearms into the floor and move shoulder blades apart.
  3. Squeeze glutes and gently draw ribs toward the pelvis.
  4. Breathe slowly while maintaining one long line from head to heels.
STOP IF SOMETHING FEELS WRONG.

Muscle effort is expected; sharp pain, dizziness, numbness, or unusual discomfort is not. Reduce the load or range, stop the exercise, and seek qualified guidance when needed.
