How to perform

Kneel with knees hip-width apart. Torso upright, core engaged, arms crossed or on hips for balance. Lean back, extending hips and maintaining a straight line from knees to shoulders. Lower until you feel a quad stretch, keeping your back straight. Pause, then return to the starting position using your quads.

Tips

Maintain a straight line from shoulders to knees. Engage your core to prevent back arching. Start with a small range of motion. Perform slowly and with control. If knee discomfort occurs, ensure hips are extended and you're not shifting weight to your heels.
