SkillPrimal Plato
Hold Your Ground
The hardest hold in the whole set — that's exactly why it comes second, while you're still fresh.
Spartan Lock is a loaded squat hold, and it's the toughest move in Temper Line. Keep your knees lined up over your toes and your weight steady the whole time — if your knees start caving inward, that's your body telling you it's tired.
About Primal Plato
Came to ancient-strength practice later in life, after deciding gym culture had nothing left to teach him. He communicates almost entirely through stillness, position, and a single nod that means more than most people's whole sentences. He doesn't correct your form out loud — he just holds the position until you notice on your own what's wrong with yours.
