Part 4/6:
Slowly transition to a forward bend by allowing your body to hang, catching your elbows to deepen the stretch through the hamstrings and glutes. Remember to breathe deeply here, allowing gravity to assist in releasing tension from the shoulders and lower back.
Downward Dog to Plank: Full-Body Engagement
From the forward bend, shift into a "downward dog" position. Alternate lifting each leg from the ground, signaling active engagement through your legs and core. This pose not only strengthens the arms and legs but also invigorates the body.
Once your legs are warmed up, proceed into a strong plank pose. Here, continue moving your hips side to side while maintaining steady breathing. This part of the routine invigorates the core and stabilizes your center of gravity.
