Muscle outlines from Body Muscles by Ivan Vulović, Apache 2.0 — regrouped and recoloured for Muscle Train.
Shift weight to one hand. Tap the opposite shoulder, keeping hips level. Return hand to the floor. Alternate sides, minimizing torso rotation. Maintain a straight body line.
To ensure stability and prevent unwanted movement, focus on keeping your hips square to the floor throughout the exercise, which will help maintain balance. Engage your core muscles by drawing your belly button towards your spine to stabilize your torso and protect your lower back. Actively level your shoulders by consciously preventing one side from dropping lower than the other, promoting even weight distribution. Fix your gaze downwards to help maintain a neutral spine and prevent excessive neck strain. Squeeze your glutes throughout the movement to further stabilize your hips and engage your posterior chain, contributing to overall stability and power. Avoid arching your back by maintaining a slight natural curve in your spine, preventing lower back discomfort and ensuring proper form.
