Starting Position
- the legs are a bit wider than shoulder width opened
- turn the feet out to 20-30 degrees
- go into the squat position, make sure that the knees do not protrude the toes to prevent injuries (the knees are rectangular)
- tilt the upper body forward simultaneously, so that the elbows touch the inner sides of your knees, bring the hands together in front of your chest
Correct Execution
- stretch out the legs almost completely
- the elbows stick to the knees
- the upper body is coming down until it is nearly parallel to the floor
- your head follows the motion and always remains in extension to the spine
- the body weight is on the heels, not on the toes
- bend the knees, your upper body comes up again
- if you hold the bent position for a bit, the exercise becomes more effective
- repeat this several times
