Hi All. Love this community, love that I can post something very early in the course for corrective tips! Gotta steer that warship correctly and early...
That being said this feels good. Thanks ahead of time!

Hi Brian,
Super smart sending in your Form Check early on!
It looks like you are off to a good start. On your PE, work on straightening your spine as you hold. You may need to scoot your knees further up your your arms to do so. I would also like to see your lower legs pulled in a bit tighter to your body (towards the gluts) as you hold.
I recommend starting with an unweighted bar on your iM. As you do this mobility exercise, avoid rolling the shoulders through into shoulder extension. Your goal should be to reach 180 degrees of shoulder flexion with the hands shoulder width apart. First, work on opening the shoulders completely, then slowly move the hands closer together until they are shoulder width apart. Once you are able to do both of these things simultaneously work on adding weight.
You're doing an awesome job. Keep working hard!
As always thanks Jeffrey!
The last thing we can say it is the head position, keep it neutral, neck must not be extended of excessively flexed. let it follow the natural spine line.
