Description:
  • Fully shortened straps, facing anchor
  • Off-set stance for easier, feet together and toes pointing up for hard
  • Palms facing each other, eyes looking high, maintain plank throughout
  • Start with handles at chest and elbows flexed, maintain plank as body drops and elbows extend
  • Initiate pull with scapular-J, keeping shoulders away from ears and flex at elbows.
  • If hips begin to drop, back feet up for less resistance (exercise is too hard)
  • If instability is too much, widen the foot stance
