Hollow Hold

Hollow Hold

Core Tension

WHAT IS IT

The Hollow Hold lies on the back with arms and legs extended just off the floor, lower back pressed down. It builds the full-body tension behind every pull-up, toes-to-bar and burpee.

HOW TO DO IT CORRECTLY

  1. 1Lie on your back with arms overhead and legs straight.
  2. 2Press the lower back firmly into the floor.
  3. 3Lift the shoulders and legs a few centimetres off the floor.
  4. 4Keep the body in a shallow banana shape, arms by the ears.
  5. 5Hold for the prescribed time; bend the knees if the back lifts.
