What to do if it does not work out, as in the video

1
If you feel excessive tension in your hamstrings and/or your back, try bending your knees generously. Only stretch your spine and legs as far as is comfortable for you.
2
Relax your shoulders, allowing space and length in your neck. Shake your head slightly to release tension. Push your shoulder blades towards your tailbone, releasing tension from your neck.
3
Relax your abdomen while breathing, letting your abdominal wall move in and out in sync with the flow of your breath.
4
Always take your time, making slight adjustments in this pose in order to get more comfortable. Keep your breathing relaxed.
