[Yakson House] butt firming Yoga poses you've gotta try now
Mountain pose
Mountain pose is the mother of all poses, says fitness and exercise guru
This position is about keeping the head, shoulders, hips and heels aligned and
engaging the glutes. Otherwise, you are kind of just standing there.
Bridge Pose
Lie on your back with your knees bent at 90 degree angle, feet parallel on the
floor and hip distance apart. Once you have settled in, press your feet evenly into
the mat and lift your spine off of the floor, pressing your hips up. Scoop your
tailbone under, and if you like, wriggle up onto the shoulders, interlacing the
fingers and clasping the hands underneath you. Slowly lower down, one vertebra
at a time.
Half Moon pose
From Crescent pose, lower your right fingertips to the floor, six inches in front of
your right pinky toe.
Extend your left arm up. Open the chest as much as you can, so that the head,
hips, shoulders, and heels are in alignment. After several breaths, bring your left
hand to the floor and step back into a lunge.
Pigeon Pose
Begin in Downward facing Dog. Raise your right leg up behind you and swing the
leg, stepping forward to the midpoint of your hands. Allow your right knee to
open out to the right, angling your knee at two o'clock. Your left leg should be
extended behind you, internally rotated so that your hips are squared and your
knee is facing the floor. Hold for 30 seconds.
Shoulder stand
Keeping the elbows shoulder width apart, bend the elbows and place your hands on
your back for support, if they are not there already. Lift legs one at a time. Press the
hips forward and bring the feet back, keeping the legs straight. Work your hands as
high up to your shoulders as you can. After five to ten breaths, slowly lower your
knees down by your ears.
