  • If we do this pose regularly, it would help strengthening abdominal muscles, improving our digestion function. It also reduces the extra fat deposited on belly and thus helps in reducing the obesity.
  • Upper legs get much exercise, as they remain stretched during this pose.
  • Hamstring and hips are actively involved while we do this pose. The twists and turns provide good exercise to them.
This yoga posture generates a sense of balance within our body.
