    Here this whole time, I thought we were supposed to be stretching calfs with this pose. 😁

    This was SO helpful as I’ve never been able to really get the hang of this pose before

    Not gonna lie that first frame got my attention.

    Emphasising the point of this goal actually really helps explain how it got that name, like if youve ever seen a dog when they first get up to run towards you? That one stretch they do as they get up honestly looks so good on the spine us humans NEED it

    • @adamseward358
      @adamseward358 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Update: the big improvement in my forward bends is continuing since focusing on the pelvic rotation. Very happy to have stumbled on this video and channel.

  • @Jaznellow

    Very helpful!!! I typically avoid downdog for this very reason - this feels soooo much better with that anterior tilt! You're a life saver!

    • @oceaneo4603
      @oceaneo4603 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I never do downdog without a warm up. And I'm flexible, very flexible.
      I don't understand why, we have to do this position without one, and why beginners aren't given an options.

    Unfortunately this is also a way for some people to develop proximal hamstring tendinopathy, or the dreaded "yoga butt", as I learned the hard way.😭If you know you're hypermobile, consider being cautious about how much you anteriorly tilt your pelvis.🙏She sure looks great doing it though. Beautiful💙

    • @6681096
      @6681096 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Yep, she has a video warning about yoga butt. You don't want to just do stretching you also need to strengthen.

    • @oceaneo4603
      @oceaneo4603 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I believe bending the knees, is a good option if your heel don't touch the floor.
      But I know I would have injuries if all my foot ain't touching the floor in this position.
      This is not the first I heard teachers it's ok.
      In my opinion, it's not. For all the stress you would put on your joints, and on how you missed out with an inproper downdog.

    Oops ive been doing that posterior pelvic tilt for quite sometime now without even knowing lol. No wonder i never felt much in my hammies 😂 thanks for the video. Can you one like this for the shoulders as well? Im confused in internal rotation thing while our arma go overhead

  • @samday6621
    @samday6621 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Aaaaaah, THANK YOU Leggings!!
    Always, in yoga they say “...as you inhale, press your thumb n forefinger into the mat...(I may be paraphrasing here, cause I’m lost in The Zone)..and on the exhale (here’s my point) lift your sits bones to the sky”
    This is when I think...lift my sits bones?!!....but....my feet, and gravity...!
    Thank you Leggings for telling it straight. Pelvic tilt, like puppy, got it.
    I’d subscribe again if I could.
