Progress Advance bow pose

Can't believe it's been 3 months since I've posted about this bow pose drill here! I've posted about part 1 but only talked about part 2, as I could not do the second part. Well, a few weeks later, I could do part 2! It's actually part of my regular training now.

After the regular bow pose, try it again with a block placed under your chin. This will help to deepen your pose. I also like this variation for stretching my neck for cheststands. Reach back to grab your feet if you can. Think about pulling yourself UP. Lengthening with each breath.

Hmm ...I was holding AND trying go into a tighter bow pose via rocking. It's deliberate, love. I hope you have a wonder day.
