Three couplets · two rounds · twelve minutes · a cylinder that holds
Arms pressed out under tension; rotate the chest away and back with the hips square.
Easier smaller rotation · Harder more tension
Take a bag from the high shoulder down across to the far hip, exhaling through it.
Easier lighter · Harder tall-kneeling

Arms long; lift arms and legs a hand-width and hold one second, nose down.
Easier arms or legs only · Harder 3-s hold

Easier two feet · Harder 3-s hold
Shoulders on the seat, chin tucked; drive to level, squeeze, breathe out on the way up.
Easier floor bridge · Harder hold a backpack
