Om den här sessionen
Purvattanasana, Upward plank pose – a stand-alone backbend in the Ashtanga primary series. In this technique video we go through how to set it up, move through it and what to think about and focus on as you move into the position with your feet grounded in the mat. Engage legs, point toes, lift chest, straighten arms and legs as head moves back. Starting with bended knees will help with stability/grounding and help you expand more. PS: Engage your legs before you lift up!
