Yoga pose: Half-ship pose

Yoga pose: Half-ship pose

(1) Place your hands next to your ears, palm forward, inhale, and open your shoulders as much as possible.

(2) When exhaling, lean back slightly, lift your legs at the same time, and straighten your knees. Straighten your back so that the toes of your feet and your head are on a flat surface. The legs and trunk are at 30 degrees to the ground. The whole body is supported only by your hips. Breathe naturally while maintaining movement. Hold the position for about 20 seconds.

(3) When exhaling, slowly lower your legs, straighten your back, and take a deep breath.

[Efficacy]

The entire abdominal muscles have been strengthened, benefiting from the intestines to the liver, strengthening the back muscles.

[Note]

Please place your hands behind your ears (not your neck) when starting the movement. Holding your head behind your neck will increase the risk of neck injury. Please breathe normally while maintaining the stereotyped posture. People are accustomed to holding their breath when exerting force. The result of holding their breath is to strengthen the abdominal muscles and weaken the benefits to the abdominal organs. While deep breathing will weaken the effect of postures on the abdominal muscles, please breathe normally while maintaining the posture. (Internship Editor: Wu Jinyu)
