If you spend 5 minutes per day on stretching - every day - you'll notice a significant increase in flexibility already after a couple of weeks. More flexibility in the ribcage means more ribcage expansion, meaning more volume in the lungs. That's how you increase lung capacity.

The stretches I currently do involve arm stretches above head and the uddiyana badha. I've bookmarked this video to incorporate these into my training routine. Thanks a bunch!

great. remember you don't have to do them all at once. Rotate. Be consistent every day. 5mins/day over a few months. That's how eventually you'll become more flexible! cheers

Some good stuff here! We've been doing stretching exercises for diaphragm and ribcage but you've got some exercises we didn't know and can add to our repertoire.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but this 3:26 looks like upward facing dog, not the cobra. And thank you for sharing such great content.

@gertleroy 5 ай бұрын

thanks for bringing attention to the difference between upward facing dog and cobra pose. Upward facing dog is when the hips are higher, cobra pose is with the hips on the mat.

@ivanv5615 5 ай бұрын

@@gertleroy it looks to me like your hips are not touching the mat, hence was my comment. If they are, that this is one high cobra 😁
