1-minute Triangle Pose
1m 9s
If your tendency to release the club early, then you will love power and consistency. Maintaining the angle that is formed between the wrists and club comes from a combination of upper body strength and lower body stability. If you lack upper body strength and have limited hip mobility then you won’t get into proper position.
The Triangle Pose will help you increase hip mobility while simultaneously increasing flexibility and strength in the upper body.
Stand with your feet wider than shoulder width.
Keep one foot pointing forward as you turn the other foot to point to the side.
Raise your arms so that they are parallel to the ground.
Bend from your waist towards the foot that is pointed to the side.
Drop your arm so that your fingers touch the ground. The other arm should extend towards the sky. Your arms should form a straight line.
Hold the pose for a moment.
Return to the start position and repeat motion on opposite side.
Do 8 to 10 repetitions on both sides.
This exercise teaches you to stabilize your lower body, increases mobility in your hips, shoulders and chest.
