All muscle groups are interconnected – when one is stretched, another is strengthened. For example, upper body side twists help stretch and tone obliques and strengthen diaphragm; arm stretches tone triceps and lubricate rotator cuffs; chest openers expand pectoral muscles and refresh intercostals; isolated leg movements that mobilize hip extensors release hamstrings and tighten quadriceps; upper and lower back bends strengthen latissimus and gluteals. A total workout is one that involves body and mind in total harmony with breath and focus.
