Tiger Pose (Vyaghrasana) is a dynamic and rejuvenating yoga posture that enhances strength, flexibility, and balance. It's particularly effective for building spinal mobility, toning the glutes, and strengthening the core.

Benefits of Tiger Pose

1. Spinal Mobility: Tiger Pose encourages spinal extension and flexion, promoting a healthy and supple spine.
2. Core Strength: The balance required engages deep core muscles, improving stability.
3. Glute Activation: Lifting and extending the leg activates and strengthens the gluteal muscles.
4. Hip Flexibility: This pose stretches the hip flexors and strengthens hip stabilizers, improving overall hip mobility.

Anatomy Focus

• Spinal Muscles: The erector spinae and multifidus are engaged to support the spine's movement and stability.
• Core: The rectus abdominis, transverse abdominis, and obliques are activated to maintain balance.
• Shoulders and Arms: The deltoids, triceps, and stabilizing muscles of the scapula strengthen as they bear weight and stabilize the pose.
