#Info – Groiners
Groiners, also known as the world’s greatest stretch, are excellent for improving hip mobility, flexibility, and core stability. To maximize benefits, ensure your movement is controlled and deliberate. Avoid rushing; focus on maintaining proper form. Common mistakes include letting the back sag or the knee collapse inward. Instead, keep a straight line from head to heel and your knee aligned over the ankle. For beginners, reduce the range of motion or use yoga blocks for support. Advanced users can add a twist for increased core engagement. Integrating groiners into warm-ups enhances overall workout performance.
