You want to avoid the neck breathing at all costs. If you are having tension in your neck, then throughout the breathing focus on keeping the shoulder blades down and relaxed tension in the neck will shut down how you operate at the pelvis and rib cage.

@Bruce Geary these foundation exercises are daily!

@Bruce Geary yes remodeling tissue can take time, so keep at it.. and there where be some ups and down for sure but keep with the breathing throughout and it will start to release the tension/guarding.

Hi! Thanks for the question as this is a common question for that exercise. A couple things could be occurring, but I want to bring back emphasis on the abdominal work that you should feel when doing it. Your body doesn’t trust your trunk/core yet therefore it’s putting a lot of weight through your wrist. As you do more, your wrist will take off so much low because this exercise is completely focused on abdominal work. What you can do is not shift forward and just stay neutral. Let me know how that works and then I can upload something to help out if it still have pain without the shifting forward.

@Kimberly Fain Sorry I’m not sorry 😂
