How to do yoga leg stretches

Yoga is a very good way to exercise the body. It is easy to get started and many people can do it. The intensity of yoga is not very high, so it is suitable for people who are not very strong to practice. Especially for some women, practicing yoga can not only make their bodies beautiful, but also is very helpful for physical health. So how do you do yoga leg stretches? Let us introduce it below.

First move

1. Stand up straight, open your legs as far as possible, and stand firmly.

2. Bend your upper body and try to get close to your thighs. Stretch your arms and place them on the ground, trying to keep your pelvis parallel to the front edge of the yoga mat. Maintain this position, relax your body, and take 5 deep breaths.

The second approach

1. Sit up straight with your legs together, feet lifted, hands hanging at your sides, head up and chest out, looking forward.

2. Bend your left knee and place your left ankle at the base of your thigh as close to your pubic bone as possible. Lean forward and grab the sole of your right foot with both hands.

3. Continue to press your upper body downward, bring your head close to your shin bones, press your chest against your legs, and bend your elbows outward. Switch legs and repeat the same action.

The third move

1. Spread your legs forward and backward, with the left leg in front and the right leg behind. Bend the left knee so that the thigh is parallel to the ground and the calf is perpendicular to the ground. Place your right knee on the ground with your calf close to the ground.

2. Place your right hand on your left knee, your left hand on your back, twist your waist to the left, and maintain even breathing for 5 times. Then do the same on the other side.

The fourth step

1. Sit with your left leg bent, your left foot close to your body, your right leg straightened to the right front, and your body tilted to the right.

2. Place your right arm naturally on your left thigh, stretch your right arm over your head, hold your right toes with your right hand, maintain 5 even breaths, and then switch to the other side.

The fifth move

1. Lie on your side on the carpet and support your upper body with your hands.

2. Bend one leg and place the toes on the inner side of the other thigh. Straighten the other leg and lift it up as high as possible to feel the muscles on both sides contract. At the same time, pay attention to tightening the buttocks. Keep breathing evenly for 5 times, then switch to the other side.

Yoga leg stretching exercises can be performed according to the methods introduced above. When practicing yoga, you should pay attention to gradual progress and slowly increase the difficulty of exercise to ensure that the effect of exercise is more ideal. Don't always think about eating too much at once. This is not good for practicing yoga. In addition, only long-term exercise can achieve good results.
