Pose 5: Downward Facing Dog (Adho Mukha Svanasana)
Physically, what’s it good for?
- Posterior chain flexibility and strength – that’s gluts, hamstrings and calves.
- Core strength
- Shoulder mobility and strength
- Breathing, lung capacity through deep breath.
This pose takes a lot of skill and practice to get right. Once in position, stay there for 6 deep breaths and ensure you feel a good stretch in the backs of your legs. Have a go and let me know what you think. Find more videos on my YouTube channel, Performance Yoga.
