Controlled Movement

When performing the stretch, pull one knee towards your chest while keeping the other foot flat on the ground. The movement should be slow and controlled, not jerky or rushed. This helps to avoid muscle strain and ensures you're stretching effectively.

A common mistake is to arch the back while performing the stretch. Ensure your lower back remains flat against the ground throughout the exercise. This not only helps to protect your back but also ensures you're effectively stretching the hip.
