hahaha, very funny...

- Keep your arms straight at all times.

- Your feet getting off the floor signal a lack of mobility "somewhere"...

 

More work is required for mastery.

Yea. I would do this some to save time.

And seriously. Straighten your arms

I have not played with this variation yet... I have thought about it several times, and shot it down as not being a good idea. I suppose it wouldn't be bad if the arms stayed straight.

I think this came up before... i found that i don't reach quite as far across when i try using both.

Yeah, as a mobility exercise it's not so great, because (as you can see) it's difficult to focus on form when doing both ways at once. I was just happy to get the hand-orientations right.

In my opinion, while fun, this exercise also compromises ROM.   Notice that both arms display insufficent rotation of the humerus at the top of the movement.
