Technik-Tipps
Place your hands on your lower back with your fingers pointing downwards. Make sure your palms are flat against your back and not just your fingertips. A common error is placing the hands too high or too low, which can affect the effectiveness of the stretch.
Slowly and gently pull your elbows back, aiming to bring them closer together. Avoid the mistake of forcing the movement or jerking your elbows back, as this can cause injury. The stretch should feel comfortable and not cause pain.
Remember to breathe normally throughout the exercise. Some people tend to hold their breath during stretches, but it's important to keep oxygen flowing to your muscles
