pikes - consistency
Drill
Volume
Cue
Spatial awareness - for the sake of exploration and consistency → pelvis / pike emphasis
pick in the super guide
tension (legs or abs) exploration and testing for the kick-up / balance at wall or FS in one specific shape supersetting with compression drills or tension gears
assume different different results for different shapes
FS staggered and frog
Static pikes (consistency) - sprinkling the pike in tuck and straddle A to Z R to Z
3 - 5 B2W and or FS pause for 3 seconds each If ease, reset
If A is feet together and Z is your deepest pike R is the first position where things get tricky (compressed enough)
