F 72 C Tuck Lift EN

Sitting onto the floor with the hands beside the pelvis.

Cross the shins in front of you and bring the knees close to the chest.

Allow for the upper spine to flex and forward.

Now it’s very important here that, to note in the beginning here, that if you’re not strong enough to lift the feet off the floor when we actually go into this form, that you’re going to be keeping the feet down.

It’s very important not to cheat by lifting the chest.

We want to keep the upper spine flexion engaged throughout the whole movement.

So when you’re ready, grip the arms into the side of the body, keep the upper spine flexed, the head relaxed down.

Squeeze the thighs into the chest and press the palms to the floor as you lift the pelvis up into the air.

And you’re going to go into C shape forward here as the pelvis lifts up.

If it’s available for you, you’re going to lift the heels toward the buttock and lift the feet up off the ground.

If not, you’re just going to keep the feet down.
