It's just sort of. Uh-huh. Yep. Short box on the long box. And you're making good time today.
Good, sit. Have your toe right, feet underneath the strap. So Wayne, just so that you know, one reason why I'm starting on making you to do this, where you're getting your own strap and getting your own spring is not only to make you more independent, but it also makes you bend forward, multiple times and get that stretch. So take your feet forward here. So your heels are on there and slide your tush a little forward.
Good, and can you open your feet a little more, open, open, open your heels, open your heels. Now, remember same thing here, press on this part of the heel. Yes, and that part of the toe. So you're working that, that no matter what you're doing, right, good. Hug your hands around your stomach.
And you're gonna roll back. Remember your tip and your tuck. So you're gonna take the pelvis back. Don't push on the feet and take your pelvis back and roll all the way down, leading with your pelvis. More pelvis, more hips, more hips, not upper back.
More hips, more hips. Go ahead, all the way down. Excellent and roll all the way up. Push this back, push this back, push this back. Good and roll all the way down.
That's in my hips, right? Mm-hmm. Right there. Yes, pelvis. So, you don't feel it in your lower back at all?
Good, and again, roll back. Nope. Why are you leading with your head? Where do we move from? Yes, yes.
Come on, push me. With your tummy, with your tummy, uh, uh, uh. Don't push here. Move here. Yes, yes, yes.
Watch the feet. Yes, right here. Push, push, push. Beautiful. All the way down.
Open. Good, bring the head up. And where are you gonna anchor? Find your tuck. Find your tuck.
Pull this in. Don't skip this. Go back. This cannot skip. One more time.
And you have to keep that on. As long as you can. This does not come off before this, right? It's like a strand of pearls. So your pelvis goes back.
Get your hips on the mat. Good hips. Then waist. Pull this back. Yes.
Now bring the head up. Back here, back here, back here, back here, back here. Very good. Feels good though doesn't it? (Kathryn laughs) Sit all the way up.
Remember to hold the white tips and lift up too. Okay. Good. Now, don't lose. See how your ribs went away from me?
I want your tailbone on me. I want your ribs. Now, I want you to lift, lean forward and grow long, don't arch your back. Get your pelvis on me, there. Now lift up to sit upright and grow tall.
Don't you arch your back. So the second I feel this go away from me. I know that you've arched. Okay? So hinge forward.
Don't round it. Hinge. Yes. Now come forward, come back, come back and move this. Move this, move this.
That's it, you feel that? Pull the tummy in and then return up with a hinge. And now shoulders to me and come back, come back. Get your low back on me, low back. Yes, yes, yes, yes.
And sit upright. Good. And reach forward. And hinge back, pelvis to me. Pelvis, pelvis, pelvis.
And stretch all the way forward. Exhale. (muttering indistinctly) Yes, hold the bar. Lift up. It's not easy.

Reach over and up. Lift. Reach over. Come on, move your head. Head stays in the middle, head stays in the middle.
