Make it your movement

Keep your torso tall and breathe normally. Reduce the lift rather than leaning back; hold support if needed.

Choose by comfort and ability, not age alone. Clear your space and start slowly. Stop for pain, dizziness, or chest discomfort; seek urgent medical help for chest pain or severe symptoms. Ask a qualified professional about injuries or health concerns. Illustrations are not a substitute for individual form assessment.
