Master the Locust Pose: Strengthen Your Back & Fix Mistakes

In this video, we explore the Locust Pose (Salabhasana), an essential yoga asana for strengthening the entire posterior chain.
This pose specifically targets the extensor muscles, including the deep erector spinae, which are crucial for maintaining an upright posture and preventing a rounded back or kyphotic position.

We'll break down the mechanics of the pose, highlighting the role of the middle and anterior deltoids in shoulder flexion and the importance of the inferior trapezius in stabilizing the shoulder blades by pulling them down and back. Additionally, we'll show how elongated pectoral muscles contribute to a greater range of motion, helping you achieve the optimal form.

The video also includes a detailed animation demonstrating these muscle actions, common mistakes to avoid, and practical solutions to help you perfect your Locust Pose. With our expert tips, you can improve your posture, strengthen your back, and avoid common errors!
