Standing with your feet about hip width apart, place a broom stick/hockey stick/etc across the top portion of your back. Please avoid placing it on your neck, to prevent any injury to that area. Keeping your core activated to protect your back, slowly bend forward at the hips. Your hips should pull backward slightly, and you should start to feel a bit of a tightening or pull along the backs of your legs. Stop when you can’t keep your back straight or when you feel a strong pull in the legs. To stand up, tighten your glutes to push your hips forward again.
