Now that you are almost back to the start position, don't lose your alignment and control.

Exhale: Your abs stay in and your ribs and shoulder blades stay down as you unfurl the last bit of your spine onto the mat.
Coordinate the final roll down with bringing your arms overhead.

You are now in position to begin again. Keep your flow -- inhale and begin to roll up.
