The Ascent

Stand up by extending the hips and knees, and by pushing the head and chest straight up – this should all happen at the same time so that the trunk of the body stays in the same position.

Common mistakes

Going onto the toes – the weight should be on your heels. If the weight is on your toes, shift your bodyweight backwards onto the heels

Rounding the lower back – the lower back should be flat. If it rounds, lift the chest up and work the muscles in-between your shoulder blades

Letting the knees drift in – correct this by pushing the knees out to the side. Also think about pushing the floor away with the outside of the feet.
