Yoga and Exercise Session

Key Exercises

  1. Downward Dog to Tricep Pushup

    • Start in Downward Dog position.
    • Perform a knee drop.
    • Transition into a tricep pushup.
  2. Supine to Upward Boat Transition

    • Move smoothly between supine position and upward boat.
    • Focus on maintaining a smooth transition to prevent jerky movements.
    • Use breath control to aid the transition.
      • Inhale and exhale in the back position.
      • Exhale and inhale at the top position.

Breathing Techniques

  • Breathing Importance: Control your breathing to manage heart rate and maintain control during transitions.
    • Avoid rushing and focus on smooth breathing.
    • Utilize internal pressure to support transitions, especially for those with an arched low back.

Tips for Execution

  • Smooth Transition: Aim to "hollow out the back" to enable a smooth transition between shapes, avoiding a clunky movement.
  • Engagement: Roll down smoothly and pop back up onto sit bones.
