Recording tips

  • Film from the side so the banana-shaped body line is obvious.
  • Keep shoulders, hips, and legs in frame.
  • Hold still — a short clip of the hold is enough.
  • Keep it under ~30 seconds.

Better lighting and a full body in frame give the AI a more accurate score.

Faults the AI detects

Lower back liftingFix

Press your low back into the floor — shorten the lever (bend knees) if you can't keep it glued down.

Too tucked / no tensionWatch

Lengthen slightly into a hollow shape — shoulders and legs off the floor with abs braced.
