"Yoga Experience" Why do knees and legs always fall off in tree yoga?
The tree in yoga is also called golden rooster independence.

This is a meaningful gesture, powerful and photogenic.

This is the yoga practitioner's favorite balance posture.

It can not only exercise balance and leg strength, eliminate fat in hips and legs, but also relieve physical and mental fatigue, regulate mental disorders, balance and calm the brain, stimulate the body's self-repair ability, promote kidney-tonifying and detoxification, effectively eliminate brain distractions, improve concentration, and prepare for advanced meditation exercises.

Yoga tree is one of the classic forms of yoga, which is deeply loved by the majority of Gaja people. Careful Gaja people will find it with a little attention.

You can see it in almost every yoga class.

The tree pose is not a difficult pose, and the practice steps are simple, but many people do it well.

Especially for beginners of yoga, they will face a problem: the leg on one side of the knee is always easy to fall off, or the leg on one side will not fall off, but the leg on the other side is easy to fall off.

As we all know, the main function of trees is to enhance leg muscles and sense of balance.

Therefore, in the yoga tree, the knees are easy to fall off, which is bound to have a great relationship with the strength and balance of the leg muscles. There are also two important reasons: the thigh muscles of the knee-bending leg are not tightened, and the hip abduction ability of one side of the knee-bending leg is limited.

Today, I will briefly introduce several yoga moves to improve hip abduction:

1, Badha Konasana

Sit on the mat, legs together, bend your right knee, heel close to perineum, bend your left knee.

Put your feet together, hold the forefoot with both hands, inhale, straighten your spine up, exhale, lean forward and down, and keep your legs close to the mat.

2. Prone breaststroke

Kneel on the mat, spread your legs at a proper distance, lean forward and down, and put your palms on the mat.

Open your knees to the outside again and slowly lower your body to the maximum personal limit.

3. Caterpillar variants

Kneel on all fours, spread your feet and hands to hip breadth, with your arms and legs perpendicular to your body. Lift one hip abduction upward, and then retract it. Repeat 10 for the other side.

Step 4 lift your legs sideways

Lie on your side on the mat with your legs straight, your arms supporting your head, and your other hand on the front of your body. Lift the thigh for 30 seconds, then retract it, repeat the exercise for 5 times, and switch to the other side.
