This week it is vertical flexion. Basically he knows how to weight shift, he just can't hold it for very long. Some of that is muscle strength over time, the other part is vertical flexion. I've been teaching him to lift his head and tuck his chin. He did the first session all sloppy but
Shoulder-in is much better!
