Chair Pose Cues:
- Start exercise in a standing position: feet shoulder width, core engaged, arms stretched overhead with lats engaged, shoulders back, and chest up.
- Drop your hips back and down as you bend at the knees, keep weight on your heels, and maintain arms overhead.
- Hold this position for the allotted time.
Ideas for Exercise Uses:
- Perform as a warm-up exercise before doing weighted overhead squats or squat press exercises.
- Add to a balance workout to work on leg strength while arms are lifted overhead.
- Use as a form drill to practice engaging your lats and maintaining proper posture while performing a static exercise.
