💪 Pro Tips

  • Stay centered in bird dog: Don't let your hips rotate - keep them square to the ground
  • Control the eccentric: Slow down the lowering phase on all movements for maximum benefit
  • Engage your core constantly: Every exercise here challenges stability - keep that core tight
  • Quality over speed: These patterns require coordination - nail the movement before adding speed
