Single leg pike

I can do the stretch with my hands flat on the floor, I need to go lower but Not enough to touch with my elbows on the floor, I have trouble maintaining myself without getting my shoulders tired, what could I do to get a more intense stretch?

Hi Edoardo,

You can support your hands on the floor or on stretching blocks while you try to relax completely with your upper body. You are not supposed to use your shoulders in this stretch. Engange your quad strongly on the standing leg and focus on trying to maintain an APT on th descend. The less weight you put on your hands, the Stretch will become more intense.
