McKenzie stretch

Grnhouse

I’ve watched some Youtube videos about the famous McKenzie low back stretch and the one question I have is should I hold in my abs while doing this stretch? I haven’t been able to get an answer on the videos so I decided to turn to the awesome mfb peeps. here are a couple examples https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=w3Q0xwuIF20 and https://m.youtube.com/watch?t=6s&v=clfpWjqVP6U.

You should engage your abs when doing the exercises. For core stability it is good to engage for all exercises.
