Objectives
Develop strong abdominal control and strength to support the spine as it articulates through a larger, more fluid range of motion.
Enhance spinal mobility while maintaining abdominal engagement to guide a smooth, controlled roll down.
Improve flexibility and ease in the back muscles to allow freer, more efficient spinal movement.
Build coordinated co‐contraction of the abdominals and back extensors to stabilize the body while engaging the elbow flexors.
Increase trunk stability and refine scapular control to create a steady foundation for integrated upper‐body and spinal movement.
Focus on breathing to synchronize the movement.
