Hello,
I'm a beginner, and have pretty bad form in my pancake during a straddle. I have a rounded back, and have read that it's likely hamstring mobility that's the problem. After warming up I can stand and put my palms on the floor. Other than sitting on blocks or pillows, any other suggestions for how I can scale this back, and break into a good pancake straddle?
