In the 90-90 QL opener, the back hip should be pressed down toward the floor during the exercise, and the arm on the painful side should be straightened and reached over toward the non-painful side to stretch the bottom ribs away from the hip.

Evidence Quote

Take this back hip here and press it down towards the floor as much as you can...take the arm on the painful side, straighten my elbow, and then reach over towards the non-painful side...goal is to stretch these bottom ribs right here away from the hip as much as possible
