Back-arch rocks

Main points

• Arms either stretched by ears, bent with hands touching ears, or behind in ‘wings’ position
• Back arched as high as possible
• Tighten all muscles in the back of the body including upper back, lower back, glutes, hamstrings and calves
• Legs must be locked straight
• Start the rock by dropping shoulders slightly forward, then continue by transferring weight from back to from
• Maintain body tension at all times
