HI Everyone,

Here a sequence for athlethes to help the muscles stay long and flexible and not just short and strong. Long and flexible muscles are healthier and less prone to injury. Do this for a few weeks and observe your body becoming more flexible and open.

The poses I demonstrate in this sequence are:

upper back / rib stretch

mountain pose / tadasana

standing forward bend / uttanasana

plank pose

chaturanga dandasana

cobra pose / bhujangasana

downward facing dog pose / adho mukha svanasana

low lunge pose / ashwa sanschalanasana

warrior I-Ii / virabhadrasana I-II

extended side angle pose / utthita parsvakonasana
