Control through a useful range is more valuable than chasing a shape.
Earn the position.
Why range of motion matters is less about forcing a shape and more about learning what your body can control today. Begin with a range where breathing, balance, and intent remain available.
Control through a useful range is more valuable than chasing a shape. Progress by owning the position before asking for more load, speed, or complexity.
Use useful constraints.
A wall, bench, lighter load, slower tempo, or shorter range can make the movement easier to understand. Constraints are teaching tools, not evidence that you have failed.
