Why touching the toes while seated on the floor with outstretched legs produces less stress on the lower spinal column than when touching the toes from a standing position?

Because when standing up and bending over to touch your toes gravity is pushing down directly upon your lower spinal column, and less stress is placed upon your lower spinal column when you are at the lowest possible point on the floor. I hope i helped!
