General And Specifics
- this exercise is often executed as a dynamic stretching and warm up combination
- hamstrings and lower back are stretched
- make sure that the motion is slow and not resilient, otherwise the lower back area is strained too much
Starting Position
- stand upright, the feet a bit wider than shoulder width apart
- knees are slightly bent
- stretch out the arms to the sides and bring them in line with the shoulders
- keep the back straight and the shoulders pulled back
Correct Execution
- bend over
- you can bend the knees a bit more now
- turn your upper body to the side, so that the lower arm points to the opposite foot
- the other arm points up
- now rotate to the opposite side
- do several reps
