Follow us with the blue letters on it! Ladies and gentlemen, have you ever encountered such problems in yoga practice? One legged posture always sways and makes it unstable to stand.
Everything else is fine, some mid to advanced poses cannot be done slowly.
But standing on one foot is a bit difficult to say.
Either you don’t do it, you must do it well.
Otherwise, swaying and swaying not only hinders the completion of the pose, but also makes it easy to lose center of gravity and fall.
Why do yoga teachers stand on one leg as if on the ground, but we are always trembling and swaying? Today, the Yoga editor will help everyone solve this problem.
Simply put, if you want to stand steadily, you can do one thing: stay in the right position.
The question is, how to correct this bit? 1、 Find the stability of the foot.
1.
Find the stability of the foot, and press the ball of the toe down onto the mat, especially the ball of the big toe.
2.
Maintain this movement while pressing the ball of the small toe down.
3.
Activate the muscles to lift the arch of the foot.
First, press the foot flat on the mat.
4.
Press the ball of the toe down onto the mat, especially the ball of the big toe.
5.
Maintain this movement while pressing the ball of the small toe down.
6.
Activate the muscles to lift the arch of the foot, The function of compacting the inner side of the foot relies on the combination of tension and flexibility, finding a balance between stability and relaxation.
The tension of the arch of the foot gives us speed and strength when walking and running.
The arch of the foot is also a ‘shock absorber’.
However, if the arch of the foot is too tight, it can bring instability.
Imagine a tennis racket, if the strings are pulled too tightly and the surface of the racket is too tight, it will lose its elasticity and strength.
Practice function: These steps ensure the proper structure and alignment of all bones in the foot, while also supporting the stability of the ankle joint, ensuring that the grounding foot is active and safe.
When you lift a leg, it can help the muscles easily lift the bone without making the lifted leg feel “dead weight”.
At the same time, it also stabilizes the entire foot, ankle, and calf.
2、 Strong and stable knees 1.
Knee stability is crucial for single body balance poses and transitions between poses.
To activate the front thigh muscles, lift the knee up.
2.
Standing on one leg, activate the hip muscles on the side of the supporting leg to stabilize the pelvis.
3.
The supporting leg should be strong and straight, activate the thigh muscles to allow the hips to be free.
4.
Activate the front thigh muscles and lift the knee exercises.
When balancing and transitioning postures, a positive, strong, and safe knee joint is the key to ensuring stability.
The muscles of the knee joint bend the joint by coming into contact with the tendons that fix the knee bone.
The muscles slowly pull the knee bone upwards into the thigh muscles to produce the action of “lifting”
