How to do it

Setup

Face the anchor holding both handles with straight arms, and walk the feet forward until the straps are taut.

Steps

  1. Sweep the straight arms up and out into a Y overhead.
  2. Let the body rise toward the anchor as the arms open.
  3. Lower back to the start under control.

Common mistakes

Bending the elbows to finish the sweep: keep the arms straight and walk the feet back instead. Shrugging the shoulders to the ears: pull the blades down first. Hinging at the hips to lift the body: the arms do the work.

Breathing

Exhale raising, inhale lowering.
