How to do it

Setup

On your back under the anchor, heels in the foot cradles, knees bent, arms flat at your sides.

Steps

  1. Press the heels down into the cradles.
  2. Drive the hips up until the body makes a straight ramp.
  3. Squeeze the glutes at the top for a beat.
  4. Lower without letting the hips touch the floor.

Common mistakes

Arching the lower back to reach a higher top: stop where the glutes stop working. Feet swinging out to the sides: keep the straps still. Resting on the floor between reps, which drops the tension the exercise lives on.

Breathing

Exhale driving up, inhale lowering.
