Exercise Description:
Yoga: Advanced side angle stretch

Classification:

Instruction:
Bend your right knee until it forms a right angle, wrap your right hand underneath the right leg and reach your left arm behind the body interconnecting the fingers. Keep the right knee at 90-degree angle and straighten the back leg pressing the outside of the foot into the floor. Keep the tailbone tucked under, pull the navel in towards the spine and lift the pelvic floor muscles. Open the left shoulder up towards the sky and look up. Keep all four corners of the feet pressing down into the floor. Do not allow the chest to collapse forward or lean on the right leg. Use the strength in the legs to support the pose. Maintain in this pose for 5 to 10 deep breaths.

Side Note:
Increases the strength of the ankles, thighs, hips and back. Increases the flexibility of the intercostal muscles. Stretches the lateral fibers of the spin. Specifically, the quadratus lumborum. Opens the chest and shoulders and increases lung capacity. Stimulates digestion.
