Roll Up struggles? Let’s talk about it!
Are you:
❌starting in extension (you know that little rib lift to help throw ya up?
❌ using your shoulders to find your “round” spine
❌ reaching too far forward once you get up - this is what we’ll focus on today!
First, let’s set up for success
✅ Arms up to the ceiling with ribs taking up space on the mat. Aka no roasted chicken 🍗 ribs (but please done knit the ribs together. If you need more help here my arm-back connection classes and workshops are what you need).
✅ legs hugging together and heels and thighs pressing down (not knees).
✅ round from the center to come up over your legs
Now!!! Let’s talk about where you need to stop, anchor and reach from.
It’s super tempting to round so far forward your tailbone begins to stick out (even a little) behind ya. Our goal is to reach it down. Like you were sitting up.
So as you round forward with your spine your pelvis get to sit up, frontal hip points lifting up (not back loves we are not talking tucking here).
By finding the lift of the bones inside the body the muscles that have to work find the body's longest round shape.
Is there then space between the center and legs? Maybe. Depends on the shape of the person. If you have chest or belly abundance you can absolutely be slaying this reach and no “scoop” to be seen. Soooo focus less on the scoop and instead work the bones into place.
The muscles around the hips will be on mitigating your hip flexors over working. Your center will be on setting you up for the next rep!
Your turn! Have fun!!
