You're killing me!!!! Awesome :)

[@postmanhoopstwice1394]

Your body control is amazing. You just fly through these difficult moves without any problems at all. I do quite a lot of calisthenics, but these exercises surpass my momentary capacities.

[@YOGAthletica]

thank you so much! i work A LOT on core exercises. we all have our strengths, right? :) in time, it all comes! :D

OMG! Did you say beginners??? Struggling with the 2nd half of the 1st pose!😝😝😝 Will be adding this to my core work and try to do it everyday in March and see how much I've improved as a challenge to myself!

[@YOGAthletica]

[@christine1962ful]

@@YOGAthletica looool I found it in your beginners playlist. Sooo glad it's not beginners because I was beginning to think there's something wrong with me! I found another you posted so will work with that one but will still try this and see if there's any improvement. Day 1! 😝😝😝

:D please have a reese's peanut butter cup for me!

[@vickyd7541]

shana meyerson Yummm... Thanks for triggering my new addiction :) ! Apparently there is a sugar free option, though not in my country :(

[@YOGAthletica]

Vicky D. there are sugar-free peanut butter cups, but not reese's...nothing compares to the real thing! ;)

[@fsamedi]

I have a lower back injury and it was pretty uncomfortable to do this exercise without feeling resistance on my lower back. what would you recommend?

[@YOGAthletica]

first and foremost, you always have to be sensitive and mindful to your body and injuries. if something feels intuitively wrong, it may not be the right exercise for you. but... as to your discomfort: there were a lot of different movements in this video? was there one in particular that hurt? or all of them? my suggestion to mitigate any pain or strain in your low back...when you are lying down, try to keep your entire low back flat to the floor by maintaining a little lift in your hips and engaging your core strongly to create breadth, rather than roundness in your lower back. keep in mind that your core is the back of your back and provides the support to keep your back safe. the secret to lower back safety lies in your core engagement. have you seen my "secret to all of yoga video"? kzbin.info/www/bejne/bpesYqJuipukg6M that video shows you how to effectively engage the core to keep your practice safe and strong. if you are feeling pain in the boat/seated positions, try to create a little backbend in your upper back on the movement to extend your spine and minimize compression. i hope those suggestions help! if not, there may be better core sequences for your specific needs. :)

[@kukulcan9119]

I get stuck from squatting ppse to standing. Can't seem to figure out how to even engage to stand up.

[@YOGAthletica]

Can you do a full malasana? The key here is to have your feet very, very close to your hips and try to lean your body weight so far forward that your hips have no choice but to lift. At that point, you press strongly into your feet, while keeping your forward-leaning momentum, to get up. Hope that helps!

[@kukulcan9119]

@@YOGAthletica I can do malasana so I will give it a try with your tips. Thanks!

[@YOGAthletica]

@@kukulcan9119 awesome! let me know how it goes! having feet close and knees apart helps, too!

[@satyasinha7485]

OMG it is very easy to you 😆but for us its challenge 😇👍

[@YOGAthletica]

😅 that's why i call it a challenge! hope you had fun!

[@rajenderreddykoduru7928]

Hi, I have on doubt like for core activation in yoga, will we use abdominal bracing or abdominal hollowing. please could you clarify me.

[@YOGAthletica]

the way I suggest is more of a bracing than a hollowing. 🙏

[@rajenderreddykoduru7928]

@@YOGAthletica thank you for your gentle reply, please could you make video by providing exactly difference between brace and hollow in your style.

[@YOGAthletica]

check out my "secret to all of yoga" videos to see how I explain bracing. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bpesYqJuipukg6M I don't work with hollowing beyond, say, in a lunging context like this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qISvdqmqZp58rZY
