HW: Tone Legs
Wide leg forward bend.
Begin in mountain pose. Walk your feet apart as comfortable as possible making sure both of your feet are parallel to eachother. Rest your hands on your hips as you prepare to hinge forward, breathing in. Holding your hands here will let you feel where the movement is coming from. It is important to hinge at the hips to protect your back and really feel the benefits in your legs. As you are bending forward towards the ground exhale and mindfully engage a long spine. Once your torso is parallel to the ground you may place your hands on blocks, directly on the floor, or extended outward for a little more of a challenge. This pose is meant to have your thighs engaged and lifted, as well as the arches in your feet.
This pose help strengthen and stretch the inner and back legs as well as the spine. There is a lot of core work needed here as well!
