I am by no means a seasoned coach, so take my advice with a grain of salt.  I am currently working on this progression as well.  

One major point in the PE is to make sure you are twisting throughout the torso instead of dropping the elbow to touch the floor.  It helps me to try to keep the elbow pulled back throughout the movement.  Although the sprinkler is a killer dance move, we don't want that during this exercise.

Great advice from Iain! In addition to keeping your elbow pulled back, be sure to also rotate so your elbow touches the floor just in front of your fist.

During the iM, be sure your knees are locked.

Hi George,

It looks like you have been working hard. You are doing a much better job of twisting the torso. I would like to see you twist a bit more so that your elbow is closer to the ground. As you do this, remember to maintain PPT by squeezing your gluts and pressing the hips forward.

On your iM you are still picking up some bend in the knees. Keep working on straightening them as you do this movement.

Keep up the good work!
