Yayyyy you're so welcome!! 🥰💖 It’s my personal favorite too 😍✨

jamimah You are so welcome!! Thank you always for asking questions 🙏

Closing the rib cage helps bring the upper spine into a more neutral position. You can have a closed rib cage with a tucked, untucked, or neutral pelvis—it's not about forcing one specific shape, but rather improving alignment. The cue “close the ribs” is often tied to engaging your core. But “engage your core” is a broad cue and can refer to many different things depending on the exercise or drill you are currently doing.A common mistake is trying to "close the ribs" by just sucking in the belly or collapsing the chest—instead, think of gently knitting the front of your rib cage down and in, without losing lift in the upper back. That way, you're stabilizing through the core without restricting your breathing or movement.Let me know if this makes sense :)

This looks absolutely gorgeous on you!! I’m so happy to see this—and your caption made me smile big time. Your transitions are looking so smooth. I’m genuinely so proud and such a fan of you too! 💛 Thank you for being here and for sharing your training videos—it really inspires me!(also - remind me, do you have an Instagram? I'd love to share this to my story and tag you :) )

Ooo okay, let’s get you there!! 💪 Are you able to reach both hands overhead like in this screenshot?

Yassss Jamimah, this is looking really good! 🙌 The distance from the pole can vary a bit depending on personal preference. The girl in the photo you shared has a smaller bracket and is pulling more through her top arm’s bicep, which brings her chest further from the pole. You're using a slightly wider bracket and engaging more through the shoulder, which changes the look a bit. Both techniques are totally valid—they just create a slightly different aesthetic. 💪✨

Thank you John Flynn!!
