For Yoga people, in addition to yearning for a beautiful handstand, the perfect wheel is also the dream of many yoga people.
The effect of wheel is also quite comprehensive.
It can strengthen the back muscles, relax the shoulder joints and neck muscles, and keep the spine healthy and flexible.
It can strengthen abdominal muscles, benefit abdominal organs and glands, promote blood circulation, make wrists, ankles and legs stronger, and so on.
But one thing we must pay attention to: the wheel of yoga is very different from the lower waist in peace.
Please don’t take Yoga wheel as an acrobatic or dance action! The lower waist in dance emphasizes softness, the range of movement and the overall beauty.
In order to achieve artistic effect, there will be great sacrifices to the dancer’s body.
The backward bending in yoga is more to start our muscle strength.
It requires not only flexibility, but also the correct force of wrist, arm, chest, shoulder, hip, abdomen and quadriceps femoris.
Let’s take a look at the state of the body in the wheel pose: the foundation of the wheel pose is the soles of the feet and palms, the front side of the body is stretched, the back side of the body is contracted, and the body is close to the center line rather than scattered.
Note that the stretching of the front side of the body and the contraction of the back side of the body are only relative.
You can’t stretch the front side of the body or contract the back side of the body.
