Welcome to the Rib Drop tutorial, a quick guide to achieving a neutral ribcage alignment.
Here's the breakdown:
1. Rotate the ribcage downward.
2. Move the ribcage backward.
3. Create traction at the back of the ribs by lifting them.
While it may appear easy, achieving this position can be quite challenging.
Using a yoga brick can be incredibly helpful in finding and maintaining this posture.
The Rib Drop offers several benefits, including:
- Engaging your core muscles effectively.
- Reducing back pain by promoting proper alignment.
- Enhancing your breathing capacity.
As you work on this, aim to gradually return your ribs to this aligned position until it becomes second nature.
