How to: Upward Forward Fold/Boat Variation

by

“Flexibility is the key to stability.” — John Wooden

Not sure if this is Upward Forward Fold or a Boat Variation, but it definitely requires flexibility, balance, and stability. This pose strengthens leg muscles, lengthens hamstrings, and improves spine flexibility.

I’ll be honest and tell you that I have hamstrings like rubber bands, but this pose is still challenging for me. And who doesn’t want another challenge?

BTW: If you want to improve your flexibility,  practice more yoga!

Here’s how I did this pose:

  1. Grab heels
  2. Fid balance on sitz bones
  3. Slowly extend legs
  4. Keep spine long
