Yoga Plough

CAUTION: This exercise should only be attempted if recommended by your doctor and only in the range of comfort.

1. While lying on your back, bring your feet over your head with your legs extended parallel to the floor (Fig A). Hold this position for a full ten seconds and perform three to five times per day.
2. As you become more limber you will find your foot will touch the floor without effort (Fig. B). When this occurs you may receive further benefit by bending your knees with your hands (Fig. C). Hold this position for ten seconds as well.
