Skin the Cat - Step in From Floor

CUES:

  • Set the rings to shoulder height to begin

  • Cling to the rings and step one leg at a time to tuck position

  • Raise the other leg and lean back to allow the body to flip backwards

  • Slowly straighten the arms as you lean back with control and focus

  • Reach with the legs to receive the floor before significant stretch in the shoulders takes place

  • With the legs on the floor bend the knees to allow your weight to gently pull the shoulders into the greatest shoulder extension that is comfortable for you

  • Stand to exit

Mistakes:

  • Bending the elbows after you are flipped over

  • Coming back out how you came in. Don't do this. Stand up with your legs and walk away.

  • Exiting after feet hit the ground without engaging an active stretch for the designated time
