20 To the Floor!
COURSE: dips-tricks
FOCUS: This lesson teaches a low dip variation called 'To the Floor!', building on the seated dip to go lower to the ground, with a focus on proper technique and safety for both leaders and followers.
TIP & TRICKS:
- Leaders can slide their left leg to go down slowly and control the movement.
- Followers should engage their core muscles and maintain a straight, strong plank position.
- Use directional energy for a smoother exit, with followers pushing up with their right leg.
- Leaders can place their elbow on their leg for better support and ease.
- Ensure shoes slide enough to adjust the step distance comfortably.
REMEMBER:
- Wait for clear leading signals to avoid injury and ensure safety for both partners.
- Maintain a straight back and engaged shoulder blades to prevent strain and improve control.
- Followers should be strong in their center and avoid being floppy to support the movement.
- The exit should be fluid, with followers helping themselves by pushing up, not relying solely on the leader.
