5 Common Chaturanga Dandasana Mistakes and How to Fix Them
The Most Mistake-Prone Pose in Yoga?!
Chaturanga Dandasana -- the most mistake-prone pose?!
Chaturanga Dandasana is one of the easiest poses to get wrong, yet one of the most important in all of yoga! 🤯
It affects your arm strength, core control, and even your wrist health! 😵💫
🔥 Common Mistakes Breakdown
❌ Mistake 1: Shoulders too far forward or back
When entering Chaturanga, your shoulders should line up with your wrists. Don't let them drift past or behind your hands.
❌ Mistake 2: Inactive hands
Spread your fingers wide and press through the knuckles, adding stability and taking pressure off your wrists!
❌ Mistake 3: Elbows flaring out
Keep your elbows hugging your body (elbows in) to avoid flaring, which reduces the risk of shoulder injury!
❌ Mistake 4: Shoulders dropping too low
The correct position is "shoulders level with elbows." Don't dip below your elbows -- that puts excessive stress on the shoulder joints!
❌ Mistake 5: Lower back sagging
Engage your core, tuck your tailbone, and prevent your lower back from arching to maintain core stability!
