Setup checklist

  • Start far enough from the rear support that the front foot stays planted.
  • Use a torso angle that matches your goal and feels stable.
  • Let the front knee travel naturally if it is comfortable; knee travel is not automatically harmful.
  • Hold the weight where you can balance and maintain range of motion.
