Shift your weight progressively and stabilize the support before increasing difficulty. Fix your gaze on a stable point if you need more control. Repeat the movement calmly, prioritizing control over range.

Tips

Aim for tolerable tension rather than pain. Keep breathing normally, avoid bouncing and increase range gradually; the exercise mainly targets the whole body, abdominals, glutes and hip flexors and quadriceps. For unilateral variations, complete the same number of repetitions and a comparable range on both sides.
