After we learned how to confidently perform the above exercises, and most importantly to make a bridge from a lying position, you need to start mastering the bridge from a standing position. For this we need the Swedish wall or just a wall. Preparatory exercise for the bridge as follows.
Starting position - back to the wall bars or the wall. Arms up, feet shoulder width apart. From this position, do tilt back and lean hands on wall bars, hand over hand on the rail the wall down to the bridge. Then rise back to starting position. This exercise need to be fixed a few times because it is fundamental for our item.
When we freely and naturally performed the recommended exercises, proceed to the final stage. It is recommended for insurance to run the bridge on a gym Mat and the first few times with the insurance coach.
Starting position - standing, feet on width of shoulders, hands at the top. A man stands face to the coach. The supports under the back. Do tilt back, hands up, a moment late in the slope, then gradually descend to the bridge. And pushed off with his hands, using the slope returned to its original position. When a person is ready to perform the exercise, the coach will be allowed to fulfill this item yourself.
