bent over
Hunched at waist
Bent over describes a posture with the upper body tilted forward and down, typically at the waist: She was bent over the sink washing dishes.
The position suggests labor, examination, or reaching for something low.
In vulgar slang, bent over carries sexual connotations, implying a position for rear-entry intercourse or, more broadly, being taken advantage of: We got bent over on that deal.
