pHS PE1 & iM Form Check PLEASE!

Here is my current progress. Strength wise this is not taxing, but I wonder what coaches think about protraction/depression at the plank stage of the PE? The hollow body being very strong is something I'm struggled greatly with. 

Thank you!! 

HI Ezra, your mobility is much more than required for mastery...very good!

For the PE there is the common tendency of retracting and internally rotate the upper arm, this leads to spine extension, try to hold the spine neutral and avoid excessive retraction and internal rotation.

Thank you for the feedback Alessandro! Trust me the iM feels great too so I'm glad to hear it's good. The minor spine extension is something I believe I can take care of, I will work on in the next session!

Thanks!
