TECHNIQUE: Hold the body in a plank position, grip the handles with palms facing each other. Draw your shoulders blades together as you move up bending the arms and then control as you straighten your arms. ADVANTAGES: This movement is a great one to incorporate into an arm and back workout. It allows you to work on midline stabilization and core control while actively working your back FAULTS: The main fault that can occur with this movement is allowing your core to cave giving your back and arch. The best way to fix this is to maintain an engaged core as well as draw shoulder blades in close together without shrugging shoulders. SCALING: This can be adapted by adjusting the angle at which the body is hanging to adjust the amount that the body is having to be pulled up.
