Shoulder Warm-Up: Yoga Inspired

This 1 minute warm up works fast. I usually do it slow, but choose a pace that works for you. It’s also great if you want to gain strength to start doing proper pushup.

1. Child’s pose — knees — chest — chin

2. Downdog — knees — chest — chin

The “knees chest chin” flow is called ashtangasana in Sanskrit. It’s the 8 point pose because you’re balancing on 8 points of the body: hands, chest, chin, knees, and feet. It takes a lot of control.
