Okay, so think about it what happens when the pressure comes on what starts to happen? Up in the air. Okay, we started on these start going further away from the floor think about readjusting and how you're going to get yourself closer to what's his position that little out there early. So why was that was happening with his legs? So what's up? Just go back on. What's this force is a horse's leg and foot like that. Yeah, so again to shuffle your feet in a little bit. Okay, you need to push towards the floor. Okay. Well not table. That's it. Good luck. Okay, so we'll look at that point. Again. Ali thinking that point if you need just beyond the point of this hit there when he's getting that strong shape there good good. So keep going through that checklist so feet foot with knee Bend hip tilt is his chest Palace the floor jack. That's it. Remember? Yeah. We don't want a big you in there. So just pull your guts up a little bit. That's it. So you get that hip tilts a little bit more. So that's it. But let your chest drop down to keep that little asset. That's it. Good. She thinks you don't want a big you in there. So it's a small unit again. Now turn to your old keep it nice and strong enough. Good luck. Okay, no pressure from from anybody on the outside. All I'm going to do now is think about how you can keep as much weight through your feet. Okay. So at the moment there's probably a lot of weight going down for your hands.

So keep them keep up then pull together. That's it. Great. Okay walks the side to lose it as you start to think about moving. Okay, then pulling keep that s***. They're brilliant. Keep it keep it. Keith hey, don't worry. Don't worry about you have to pull the ball. Unless you have to pull the ball a mile off the floor. It's just think about just easily often again. It calls all it's doing is making you making the transfer that pong pressure stuff.
