Hey there,
This is my 5th set of FL/PE1 and iM. Please let me know if you see anything worth improving before moving to FL/PE2.

FL/PE1 Mastery Form Check

I am not a GB certified coach or athlete, so don't take my advice as gospel, but from what I see you can improve:
1) your feet are too high off the ground and your knees are too close to your chest. If you watch the course video again you will notice that the athlete's feet are just barely hovering above the ground. This also places his hips at a more extended position/move his knees further from his chest than yours.
2) on the iM you want to extend/arch the upper back/thoracic spine on the "down"/cow portion moreso than extending/arching from your lower back. Remember than the FL iM's are building towards Bridge flexibility, of which upper back mobility is a crucial factor.
Hope this helps.
Got it, thanks. I'll do another week of it with those changes and post again.
