I was also wondering whether followers have any tips for maintaining posture during the movement - ie when the follower is bent backwards, supporting their own weight? I'm guessing it probably calls for good core strength, but I'd appreciate any feedback.
Just in case I've got the name wrong, this is the move I'm referring to:
