I typically encounter many people during yoga classes who don't know how to or can't perform forward bending, with legs extended. It doesn't matter if it is lying on the floor or standing, folding forward. It becomes very difficult for them to generate a correct pelvic rotation (pelvic anteversion), which allows the abdomen to approach the thighs correctly.

We spend so much time sitting on chairs that the muscles in our posterior area (back of the body) have become very short, especially in the lumbar area and hamstrings.

This has serious repercussions on our health.

We begin to carry loads to the lower vertebrae, by the position or stiffness of our hip, and modification of our curvature in the spine, we end up suffering from hernias, impingement, pain in the hips, legs. Even, these tensions can be so strong that emotionally we can tend to close ourselves and it affects our relationships.

All this can be treated with a constant, patient, gentle and disciplined practice of Yoga. Or simply a constant stretching of our body.

That is why learning to do a good pincer pose, or as it is called in Yoga; Paschimottanasa, is highly recommended to correctly elongate the posterior mesh of the body, stimulate the abdominal and renal organs and make the hips more flexible and even allow us to have more emotional openness.
