Hip Hinge

20–60 seconds or 4–30 repetitions

In the game, the amount die decides how long or how many times.

How it works

1. Stand with your knees slightly bent. Hold a stick (e.g. a broom handle) against your back so that it touches your tailbone area, your upper back (between the shoulder blades) and the back of your head
2. Tighten your stomach and bend forward from the hips with a straight back, without the stick leaving your lower back. Let your gaze follow downwards
3. You should feel a clear stretch in the backs of your thighs
4. Stand up again and, at the top, firmly squeeze your stomach and glutes without arching your back.

Only do what feels good. Please stop if you feel pain or dizziness.
