Hi Stephanie Tallant! Iāve been trying two different entries, but the pain behind my bent knee is really intense. I must be doing something wrong⦠any idea what it could be? Help! Thank you šš¤
Stephanie Tallant can you look at this dragontail before I try to get into the brass monkey. Right now the transition does not seem possible
Stephanie Tallant this press up has always given me a lot of trouble. I have a hard time even kicking into this position
Hi Stephanie Tallant and friends!
Iām trying to troubleshoot Agatha. Canāt find a comfy hand placement for the bottom arm. Iāve watched the tutorial and this is my strong brass monkey side, but weaker bottom arm bracket grip. You can see Iām getting a little confused with the hand placement also. I had fun with finding some variations but I want to get that leg off š
Stephanie Tallant this is a huge win for me. Kick up into anything makes me so uncomfortable. The props & gradually lowering the height was so helpful.
