2. Chair pose
The chair pose, or Utkatasana in Sanskrit, is a very complete position for the body, but especially for the hips, legs, thighs, and arms. Including the chair pose in your workout will benefit your upper and lower body.
- Stand with your arms at your sides and lower your body.
- Bend your knees and pretend you are going to sit on a chair with your feet firmly on the floor, and leaning your upper body forward.
- Extend your arms towards the ceiling to follow the angle of your torso and stay in this position for 30 seconds to a minute.
- Slowly return to the initial position and repeat 5 times.
Tip: Focus on your breathing for better balance. Breathe out when you bend over and inhale when you stand up straight.
