Yoga Exercise - Leg Pulls

The Leg Pull is a part of a series of leg exercises which should be performed in sequence to fully stretch and tone all muscles in the legs.

	STEP 1: Lie on the Yoga Mat and bend your right knee.
	STEP 2: Raise your left leg.
	STEP 3: Clasp your left foot with both hands. If you cannot reach your foot, use a belt or Yoga Strap to span the gap, or clasp your ankle, calf, or thigh. Firmly press the sacrum down into the floor and gently pull the leg toward you, flattening the shoulder blades and rounding your chest.
	STEP 4: Extend your right leg on the floor. Pull your left leg towards you. Continue pressing the sacrum firmly down, keep moving your shoulders toward the floor so the shoulder blades flatten, and press both feet away from you as you gently pull the leg in tighter.
