    How to: Suspender Body Saw

    1. Set up the suspension trainer at a suitable height.
    2. Grab the handles with an overhand grip and lean back at a slight angle.
    3. Engage your core and pull your body forward by flexing at the waist while keeping your arms straight.
    4. Slowly return to the starting position, maintaining control throughout.

    Common Mistakes

    • Allowing the hips to sag or rise too high.
    • Not engaging the core muscles properly during the movement.
    • Using momentum instead of controlled movement.

    Modifications

    • Perform the exercise on your knees instead of your feet for less strain.
    • Use a lower suspension height to reduce the difficulty.

    Tips

    • Maintain a straight line from head to heels while performing the movement.
    • Engage your core throughout the exercise to prevent sagging at the hips.
    • Start with smaller movements if you're a beginner, gradually increasing the range of motion.
