I'm a bit unsure about stretching I'm getting mixed reviews and claims that stretching has little effect overall.

Increase your torso stability and you will improve your ability to express mobility. Stretching is a very small piece to getting athletes to move better. I can get athletes to squat 3-5" deeper in 10 mins by giving them some stability drills and proper cues. Stretching can and will never do that.
Some basic torso drills to help you out.
Double to single leg glute bridges.
Deadbugs
Banded deadbugs
Planks/side planks
Chinese planks
Single leg raises
And while not a torso exercise goblet squats before each time you squat.
Check out darkside strength's YouTube page for information on why stretching isn't the best route for improving mobility.CEO/Head Physical Preparation Coach- End Line Training Systems
