Description

Awakened Pose (Buddhasana) is an extreme hip opener often involving threading the legs behind the head. It heavily engages the deep core and pelvic muscles to maintain balance and an upright posture, while intensely stretching the glutes, hip rotators, and hamstrings; the shoulders and upper back also work to stabilize if the hands are in prayer position in front of the chest.
