How do I do the hamstring stretch exercise while sitting?

The hamstring stretch exercise stretches tight hamstrings responsible for poor pelvic motion while bending forward. Hamstring stretches also strengthen the back extensor muscles to keep the spine from excessively flexing. This exercise will help you develop awareness of excessive spinal flexion during daily activities.

To perform the hamstring stretch exercise while sitting, it's best to have a support to rest your spine against to help you monitor whether your spine is flexing during this exercise. Sit on a table with your back against a wall or in a high chair. Let your feet dangle or rest on the floor.

Slowly straighten your left knee, making sure your spine does not flex. Create a stiff, straight spine; this will let you feel tightness in your hamstring sooner and more intensely. Hold for 30 to 60 seconds and repeat on the other side.

Alternate 2 to 5 times per leg.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
