Start with your legs at least three feet apart. Turn the right foot out to the right. Turn the left foot in to the right. Stretch your arms out to the sides and lift your sternum. Keep the right knee over the right foot. Exhale as you bend the right knee to 90 degrees. Now take the right arm down to the floor near the right foot. Stretch the left arm all the way over your head near your left ear. Tuck your buttocks under as you open your chest up and roll your shoulders back. Breathe deeply as you hold the posture. On an inhale come up. Then repeat on the left side. Tones up ankles, knees and thighs, corrects defects in the calves, develops chest, relieves sciatic and arthritic pains and aids in elimination. |
