This is a modification to try if you are having a hard time keeping your low back in the neutral position. Start on all fours with your spine neutral and core engaged to keep that same position. Slide your big toe along the ground as you stretch your leg back, and leave it there the whole time – do not lift it up. This allows the gluteal muscles to engage as they should but prevents extension through your low back. Add the opposite arm as you get better at this exercise.
