Which exercise teaches Spinal Mobility on the Trapeze/Table?

• A. Push Through Seated Front
• B. Scapula Glides
• C. Footwork: Bend and Flex
• D. Swan on the Push Through Bar

Answer: (A)

Spinal mobility on the Trapeze/Table is developed by exercises that move the spine through its range in a controlled, articulating way, often in a supported position so you can feel each segment lengthen and shorten without losing pelvic stability. Push Through Seated Front fits this purpose because you sit tall against the apparatus, place the hands on the push-through bar, and actively guide the spine through forward flexion and then extension as you press the bar forward and pull back. This setup trains the thoracic and lumbar regions to articulate smoothly, building mobility across the spine while keeping the ribcage and pelvis stable. Scapula Glides targets the shoulder blades and their movement along the chest wall, not primarily the spine. Footwork: Bend and Flex emphasizes leg and hip mechanics rather than spinal articulation. Swan on the Push Through Bar focuses on back extension, but the seated front push-through on the trapeze/table specifically sequences spinal movements in a controlled, seated context, which is what this item is testing.
