Yoga Wednesday: Extended Foot Pose (1) or Padottanasana
June 11, 2008
Extended Foot Pose (1) or Padottanasana, originally uploaded by DawnsRays.
Lolly has set up a flickr group called Yoga Wednesday and since I like to do yoga and today is Wednesday I present my first post for your perusal.
Padottanasana meaning “intense foot stretch” is a great stretch for the calves and hamstrings, esp. to loosen hamstrings and addutors.
Done without camera assistance and no remote can cause pulling of these muscles, so not advised. . . aka: get help
Agreed
*They Packed My mat!!!! I have hard wood floors ‘cries’*
I wish I had your flexibility!
Whoah… that looks very cool in the photo! I have to be very careful about which yoga poses that I do because of my back injuries so I’m limited (at this point in time and without a professional teacher to monitor me) to very simple poses and stretches. Any bends that I do are usually assisted by one of those yoga balls.. just so I don’t injure myself!
Supercool!
