Technik-Tipps
Avoid any quick or jerky movements. These can lead to muscle strain or injury. Instead, focus on slow, controlled movements. Breathe in as you stand straight and breathe out as you lean to the side.
To get the most out of the exercise, ensure that you are stretching your body completely. Reach your hand over your head and lean to the side until you feel a stretch along the side of your body. However, do not overstretch as it can cause injury.
A common mistake is leaning forward or backward while performing the stretch. This can strain the back and does not effectively stretch
