Feel "Strong" And "Powerful" Like Kriti Kharbanda Does With These Yoga Asanas

Kriti Kharbanda stays true to her fitness regimen. Amidst her hectic work schedule, the actress has carved out time for yoga sessions that boost both her physical and mental health. In her latest post, Kriti shared a glimpse of her yoga session with her trainer, Sarvesh Shashi, where she showed off her ability to ace some challenging asanas. In a series of pictures, she was found wearing comfy athleisure in shades of lavender as she aced the poses. Kriti Kharbanda wrote in the caption, “Today was so exhausting, but I feel oh-so-good! I feel strong! I feel powerful! And I feel tired. But it's worth it!” 

The workouts included in Kriti's post were Sarvangasana (Shoulder Stand) which involves lying on the back and lifting the legs and torso with the support of the hands. Next was Halasana (Plough Pose) which is performed starting from Sarvangasana and lowering the legs, allowing the toes to touch the floor. Last, she performed some reverse dumbbell flyes to strengthen the upper body as she balanced her yoga with weight training.

She did all the exercises perfectly with the help of her trainer. After this intense workout, Kriti Kharbanda wrote in her caption, "Suna hai yoga se hoga toh try kar rahi hoon! (I have heard that yoga works, so I am giving it a try)." She asked her fans, "What's your go-to to feel better and stronger!?"

Check out the benefits of these yoga poses:

1. Sarvangasana/ Shoulder Stand

It is a full-body exercise that improves overall strength and flexibility. The asana increases blood flow to the brain and heart, promoting hair growth, flexibility of the cervical spine, elimination of constipation, indigestion and functional disorders of the eyes.

2. Halasana or the Plough/Plow Pose

The name is derived from the farming tool in India. It helps in stretching the entire body, strengthening the back, increasing the flexibility of the muscle and joint movement, and improving balance, blood pressure and blood sugar levels. Hence, it also helps release stress and improve sleep. 

3. Reverse Dumbbell Fly

This exercise strengthens upper back muscles, which helps protect the shoulders from injury. It also improves posture, which in turn helps reduce stress on the spine and surrounding muscles, reducing long-term pain.
