📖 Detailed description
Get on all fours with your hands under your shoulders and your knees under your hips. As you inhale, open your chest, gently draw your shoulders back, and arch your back without forcing. As you exhale, round your upper back, tuck your chin, and gently push the floor away with your hands. The movement should be slow, fluid, and synchronized with your breathing.
💡 Execution tips
- Focus on fluidity rather than maximum range of motion.
⚠️ Common mistakes
- Holding your breath, moving too fast, forcing the lower back.
