YES.

I FINALLY GOT THE POP UP TIP I NEEDED.

BACK FOOT PLANTED FIRST. BACK FOOT FIRST!

i practice dry land pop ups a LOT! my hallway has rag with a pattern down the middle that helps approximate a stringer. i had been struggling to swing my front leg forward past my gut and boobs. i don't have the power to land both feet at the same time but had been trying to swing my front leg through first. this time i tried back foot first per a video's recommendation and boom, front leg is under me! i had been trying and trying to dip my hips with no joy either.

the first time i ever attempted a pop up i thought to myself- no way can i ever do this and here i am swingin and poppin away! this is the ONLY method i've tried so far that has me landing with my feet in (close to) the proper position. i thought it was impossible!

now to program this into my muscle memory!
