How to do it
On parallel bars, perform a scapular protraction so that the upper back is rounded.
And a scapular depression, so that the shoulders lower and you tighten the back.
As for the core, tighten the abdominals, glutes, and femoral muscles so that you execute a pelvic retroversion and have the lumbar area without arching.
Keep the legs straight and tense so that the whole body forms a compact block.
