Hanumanasana is a pose that on the surface looks like it's all about flexibility... And while it does require opening of the hip-flexors and hamstrings, there's also a lot of muscle activation happening here (as well as some gentle heart-opening too). ❤️ Download my free app - 'Riva G Yoga' - to learn more about the splits and to access my latest video 'Stretching for the Splits.' Link to download is in bio, or search for 'Riva G Yoga' at the App Store or Google Play. ❤️ #yogawithriva
