Text cues are the instruction
No demonstration video yet. Kalyra will not use AI-generated imagery as form instruction — demonstrations arrive only as reviewed performer footage or validated animation. Until then, the step-by-step cues and setup checks on this page are the complete instruction.

How Kalyra programs it
Builds trunk stability (anti extension) so the rest of your training transfers to real movement — carried with strict volume caps.
Typically 2–4 sets of 8–10 reps per side.
