There are many movements in yoga, and each movement has its own different function. Today, I introduce a kind of boat yoga, which is very simple and can be easily completed even by beginners. Practicing boat yoga can shape and lengthen leg lines, tighten loose leg fat, improve abdominal obesity and make you have a flat belly. In addition, regular practice of this type of yoga can also improve spinal problems and relieve back pain.

1 Start with "stick sitting", with your back straight and your back slightly backward. Feet together, knees bent, feet on the ground, hands behind your back.

2 Inhale. Lift your calf to be parallel to the ground, with your toes pointing up, and then lean back and forth at an angle of 45 degrees to the ground. Press your hands on the ground to help support your body. Abdominal tightening is the key point of balance of the whole body.

Exhale, lock the heel, straighten your feet at a 45-degree angle, and form a "V" shape with your torso and feet. Raise your hands and straighten forward, parallel to the ground. Concentrate your trunk strength and straighten your back and chest. Keep your feet together and clamp. Keep breathing naturally. Hold this position for about 10 seconds or longer.

Adjustment of the difficulty of rowing yoga;

If you can't keep your feet straight, you can keep your knees bent or use a chair to support your feet in front.

Matters needing attention in rowing yoga:

Try to keep your back straight so that your spine can be lifted, otherwise your coccyx will be pressed down and cause back pain.

To keep your body straight, lift your legs and keep a V shape, you need enough axial strength, that is, waist strength and abdominal and back strength. This posture has tripped many people, and another reason is that it challenges the balance of the body. So it is not difficult to notice that some pilates practitioners are more comfortable when doing this action.
