PASCHIMOTTANASANA A

  1. EXHALE. Bend forward. Grab the big toes with the middle, index fingers, and thumb, as in A, or as far as you can as in A1
  2. INHALE. Look half the up to the horizon keeping the grip. Lengthen the spine
  3. EXHALE. Bend forward. In the option you choose. STAY HERE FOR 5 LONG DEEP BREATHS
  4. INHALE. Look half the up. Lengthen the spine to pass to Paschimottanasana B.

COMMENT

The legs are straight with the feet flex. As you bend forward have the intention in mind of going with the chest towards the thighs to get the maximum elongation of the hamstrings.
