The flexibility of adults is lower than that of children. It takes a long time for a person who has not received professional training to practice flexibility. Beginners are often impatient when exercising flexibility, and some may strain themselves. Flexibility training for beginners is a little different from others, so today we will introduce a whole-body flexibility training method for beginners. Let’s take a look!
Half-Moon Variation:
The body is bent like a half moon. Regular practice can stretch our spine, strengthen our flexibility, improve bad posture, and improve our concentration! Beginners should proceed step by step to the maximum extent, and the body's flexibility will naturally open up.
Practice notes:
First stand in Mountain Pose, turn your left foot 90 degrees to the right, and twist your upper body and head 90 degrees to the right. Lean forward, keep your left leg straight, lift your right leg and extend it backwards, keeping it parallel to the ground, without bending your right knee. Finally, touch the ankle of your left leg with your left hand, straighten your right arm, and hold the knee joint of your right leg with your right hand. Keep your right leg straight upward and your legs in a straight line to maintain body stability and balance.
Cobra variation:
As a popular posture, regular practice can not only stimulate various systems of our body, but also promote our metabolism and bring us whole-body health!
Practice notes:
Close your legs together, lie on the ground, hold your upper body up with your hands, and keep your back straight. Bend your back as far as possible, tilt your head back, and naturally straighten and stretch your arms to both sides of your body. Keep breathing evenly and stay for 5-10 breaths before resting.
Hand-handed Ace Pigeon Pose variation:
As a posture that tests the flexibility of the body, it is recommended that you practice it carefully to avoid injury. When you actually do it, you will find that you are also very good!
Practice notes:
Get ready in the downward dog pose, then slowly straighten and extend your right leg backwards, bend your left leg and place it in front of your body. Lean your upper body back, hold the toes of your right foot with both hands, and touch your right foot to your head. Finally, slowly straighten your left leg forward, keep your body stable, and breathe evenly.
