Backbending Practice for Underused Extension
Regularly spend time in backbending positions such as camel pose or wheel pose, or in their simpler component movements, to reintroduce spinal extension that many people rarely use. The goal is to gently load the body through underused ranges of motion, which can improve mobility and tolerance for extension-based positions over time.
