How to foot to Forehead, two helpful exercises

Hi guys,

Today’s pictorial can be pretty advanced, and if you don’t have a deep and healthy split I don’t recommend you to try. Also, be careful at your knees. As soon as you feel discomfort or pain back off. Don’t push it.
Knees injuries are the worst.

Exercise 1
Hanumanasana, split pose
Long relaxed neck
Chin levelled
Shoulders away from your ears and facing forward
Belly in and core engaged
Hips squared
Torso facing forward
Long spine

Leg forward → quad engaged, straight knee, toes pointed
Back leg → knee facing the floor, pointed toes

Breath here 10 to 20 times each side

Exercise 2
Hanumanasana, split pose with the back leg knee bended
Long relaxed neck
Chin levelled
Shoulders away from your ears
Belly in and core engaged
Hips squared, as much as you can, I know it might not be easy, but as soon as you start twisting, let go a bit the back leg fold

Leg forward → quad engaged, straight knee, toes pointed
Back leg → bend the leg toward the glutes, take the back foot with the same side hand and push it gently even deeper

Breath here 10 to 20 times each side
