Hi all
I can't do Elbow Bridge FL/PE10>im with straight legs yet, I always do them with fairly bent legs as to start with I thought it was just a progression of the backbend. I've been doing them for a good few months now so I'm clearly not focussing on the important elements here.
From reading another post I believe that doing them with straight legs is fundamental to the position at this stage - can someone please confirm that?
Stretch Your hips flexors!
Thanks Alessandro, I will do that, but are straight legs essential to mastery of this exercise?
Cheers
OK thanks guys.
Yes, stretch your hipflexors. You also elevate your feet. As you get better lower inch by inch.
Bent legs are being shown in the videos though, right?
I tried last night with straight legs and my body was barely a few inches off the ground....
Ah right, so it's easier to start with feet raised? I might try that.
Post a video of your execution.
