Benefits: Because your weight is being supported by your legs and arms - you are strengthening your legs and arms, and wrists, glutes, the abdomen, and back.
How it's done:
- To fully come into this pose, back flexibility is required.
- It is very helpful to make sure your quadriceps (thighs) are stretched out before this pose.
- Make sure your weight is forward and over your shoulders so that your wrists are protected and not at an awkward angle.
- Keep your knees and thighs pulled in to center.
- Instead of taking you step by step for this pose, please watch the video below for instruction on how to master this pose.
