Yoga Posture - Cobra Pose
 
TRANSITION:
Usually from the plank posture, put your knees down and bend your elbows out... sweep your
nose along the mat -- forward and up. Take a long,
deep breath as you sweep up.
Hold for
10-20 seconds... Do your best to have your arms
perpendicular to the ground, fingers spread with middle
fingers pointing forward. Focus on arching your back
and keep your head/chin up. For an extra challenge,
lift your feet up off the ground.
An easier
variation of this posture is to have your
forearms/elbows on the ground... So, you're not
having to push your back up as much. Still be sure
that your upper arms are perpendicular to the ground.
