Beginners of yoga will generally encounter the following problems, which will be solved one by one today! Question 1: knee pain
.
Generally, yoga beginners’ knees are fragile
.
Many postures may need to put weight on their knees
.
Solution: use accessories to fold the yoga mat under your knees, or blankets, towels and pillows
.
Question 2: wrist pain if you have just started yoga and your wrist hurts after a few classes, maybe your wrist is in the wrong position
.
This is a common problem for beginners
.
Solution: put the wrist right
.
In order to find the right wrist position, we first came to the four legged bench
.
Place your wrists directly under your shoulders and make sure they are parallel to the front cushion
.
Spread out five fingers and press the knuckles into the ground, especially the thumb and index finger
.
This can activate the wrist and relieve wrist pressure
.
In downward dog pose, inclined plate pose, four column support pose and balance pose, it is necessary to ensure the correct wrist position
.
Question 3: in downward dog pose, I feel weak
.
Beginners practice yoga, and it’s easy for the weight to come to their shoulders
.
This is not the right way
.
It will make your shoulders tired quickly and won’t get the benefits of asana
.
Solution: make the form right and put the posture right
.
Step on the ground with your toes, raise your hips, and sit up to the ceiling
.
Put your heel on the mat
.
Relax your head, extend your cervical spine, chest and find your thighs
.
Keep the wrist parallel to the front cushion, and compact the ground with the joints of the thumb and index finger
.
Question 4: after yoga, your shoulders are very tight
.
Don’t dig a hole for yourself! Most of us usually have shrugging problems, such as doing downward dog pose for the first time
.
When you shrug in asana, your shoulders must be tighter after you finish
.
Solution: sink your shoulders back in downward dog pose with your shoulders away from your ears
.
To relax your shoulders, try turning your big arms outward and letting your shoulders fall back
.
Create space for your shoulders and keep them in the right position
.
Question 5: when bending forward, you can’t touch your toes
.
When sitting and standing forward, your hands can’t touch your toes
.
Most of this is due to the lack of flexibility in the lower back and back of the thighs
.
Solution: bend your knees slightly
.
If your lower back is tight, try sitting on a yoga brick or a yoga blanket
.
If it is because the back of the thigh is tight, bend the knee slightly and relax the ankle, which can reduce the pressure and make you better fold down
.
Question 6: stretch the back of the thigh excessively
.
Some practitioners will have pains from the hips to the legs because of stretching the back of the thigh excessively
.
Solution: don’t pull the back of your thighs too much
.
In downward dog pose or forward bending and folding, don’t completely straighten your thighs, especially in the initial practice stage
.
Instead, keep your knees slightly bent..
