Recently one of my long time friend visited me at my place. While chatting with each other I mentioned to him regarding my blog and my interest in Yoga. While talking about yoga, I mentioned to him that what sets apart Yoga from other forms of exercises is the fact that you have poses for almost every minor muscle of your body and instead of just working on just a few muscles group. Also in Yoga there is emphasis on breathing and the mental aspect.
"Is there ny pose which could work on the butt muscles and shape them up?" my friend asked me may to tease me.
"There are definitely few poses which will help you to shape up the butt muscles. Would you be interested in knowing more about these poses?" I replied.
"Yes please." My friend seemed interested.
I am always ready to help out people if they are interested in knowing more about yoga. I proceeded to demonstrate the poses and asked him to try them out. He tried the modified versions as he found them bit difficult and acknowledged that his butt area was indeed stretched and pressure was put on those muscles.
Next day he called me up and mentioned how impressed he was with the practice and he was going to continue the practice of the three poses. In case you are interested here are the three poses for your benefit.
1. Virbhadra Asana II (Warrior Pose II) - In this pose the weight of the body rests on the ankle, thigh and the butt. This pose build up the strength of the entire leg.
2. Parivratta Trikonasana (Twisted Triangle Pose) - in this pose the body is twisted and the butt muscles bear a lot of stress. This helps in developing the butt region.
3. Ardh Chandrasana (Half Moon Pose)- In this pose your weight will be borne on one leg while other leg is raise. This strengthens the entire hip and butt region.
