Physically, what’s it good for?
- Hamstring, glute and groin strength and flexibility.
A strong progression from our Pose Day 3; Reclining Hand to Big Toe Pose, this Wide Legged Froward bend will into short and weak hamstrings! Keep your back straight , this is not about rounding forwards. Once in position, stay there for 6 deep breaths and ensure you feel a good stretch in your hamstring muscle (not your knee or your bum – the in between bit!). Have a go and let me know what you think.
