Back forearm support

Individual work

In the inverted forearm support, the outstretched legs and upper body practically form a line. The legs are supported on the heels and the upper body on the forearms (face/look upwards), the forearms lie flat on the balance board parallel to each other (90 degree angle in the elbow joint).

Attention:
Head, torso, hips and knees practically form a line (do not let the buttocks sag, tense the abdomen), do not hyperextend the knee joints.

Lighten:
Without a balance board; bend your legs slightly; use a balance board for your legs, as it may be too difficult for your arms.

Harden:
Additional weight (on your hips); unstable surface for your legs too (probably too difficult).
