1. We start by lying down with the back against the floor (supine), then we per- form a backward shoulder roll with straight legs (using the same shoulder as the one we want to use in the back flag/side planche). Once both feet touch the floor, we should search for an ascending diagonal line and rotate the outside leg externally to open up the hip and the body toward full extension, ultimately reaching the back flag/side planche position.
When performing this drill, we should keep in line the initial and final trajectory of the body.
