Round Back is performed for how many reps on the Short Box sequence?

• A. 1-2 reps
• B. 6-8 reps
• C. 3-5 reps
• D. 8-12 reps

Answer: (C)

Round Back on the Short Box is about controlled spinal articulation with the pelvis stable, guiding the spine through a precise rounding and then returning to lengthen. In this Short Box sequence, three to five repetitions provide enough cycles to coordinate breath and movement, while keeping the emphasis on accurate spinal rounding and pelvic control. Doing more reps can fatigue the stabilizing muscles and lead to technique breakdown, whereas too few reps may not solidify the movement pattern. So three to five reps is the optimal range.
