Conseils techniques
A common mistake is to perform the Iron Cross Stretch with incorrect posture. Start by lying flat on your back with your arms outstretched to the sides. Then, lift one leg and rotate it across your body towards the opposite hand. Make sure your shoulders remain flat on the ground - this is key to getting the stretch right and preventing injuries.
