Muscles Engaged
Modifications
- Place the lifted foot on a block or on the floor beside the standing foot instead of wrapping
- If palms do not touch, hold a strap between the hands or press the backs of the hands together
- Practice near a wall for balance support
Cautions
- Avoid with knee injuries; practice only the arm portion while standing on both feet
- Use caution with shoulder injuries; use a gentler arm variation (hugging shoulders)
- Those with low blood pressure should come out of the pose slowly
