Introduction
A movement focused tutorial on performing controlled leans around bunkers using compact body mechanics that minimize exposure while maintaining balance.
Key Points
- Introduces low exposure leaning movement.
- Explains torso and hip alignment for stability.
- Covers micro adjustments used during leaning.
- Teaches predictable return to cover sequencing.
- Supports safe visual access around bunkers.
Details
Compact leaning is a tactical method for gaining visual access around cover while keeping exposure minimal. Unlike technical micro adjustments, this topic focuses on the physical execution of the lean itself.
The player begins in a stable base posture with feet positioned to support lateral movement. Weight shifts gradually toward the outside foot, allowing the upper body to lean in a controlled manner.
The torso moves as a unified structure. Bending at the waist disrupts balance and increases exposure. Instead, the hips and shoulders rotate together slightly, maintaining structural integrity.
The lean is small and deliberate. Overextending creates instability and delays the return to cover.
Returning to cover involves reversing the weight shift smoothly. Sudden movements can cause imbalance, making it harder to reset posture.
Learning compact leaning helps players safely gather information and supports future development of positional awareness.
