  1. I'm a little confused about the cues when preforming a passive backbend on a wheel, roller, or bench. In both the Backbend Mastery Series and S&F its required for you to relax into the stretch once you have your upper back stable on the support. Is it implied that I should tuck the tail during a passive backbend? I'm feeling a good stretch from the bottom of my rib cage through my abdominals without tucking my tail. I imagine there has to be some stretch in the lower back during a backbend, though without causing any compression? I just feel like I'm not understanding the proper cues. If I were to tuck my tail and breathe/relax into the stretch, I'd lose the tail tuck as my hips travel downwards or when I take a deep breath. That and I feel like my abs are continuously contracting without allowing a backbend to take place.
  2. Hello all, https://vimeo.com/ondemand/mfbb As well, please find the PDF to take with you for easy reference: http://kitlaughlin.c...ck_Bend_ABH.pdf A note: for most people, and for health, this is the most important of the Mastery series. It covers HFs, quads, extension in the lower, middle, and upper back, and flexion in the shoulder joints. All together? Full back bend. And then, as the last exercise in the Program, there is one of the best examples of how to teach I have ever seen: Olivia takes Craig ("MH") through ALL the necessary cues for performance of this fundamental strength exercise.
