Caution
- Stop immediately if you feel sharp, radiating pain down your lower back or legs.
- If you have been diagnosed with a herniated disc or your pain keeps recurring, consult a specialist before doing this stretch.
- Rather than forcing your upper body to bend forward, stretch slowly within a pain-free range.
