Take the Utthita Hasta Padangusthasana Challenge

You probably know the variation of utthita hasta padangusthasana where you hold your big toe with a strap instead of your fingers. But what about this twist?: Don't hold the toe at all. Here's how:

1. Come into the pose as your normally would, either with or without the strap.

2. Let go of your foot and try to maintain the height of your leg for five breaths.

3. As the leg inevitably sinks lower with each passing second, be mindful of the tendency to lean back and bend the standing leg in order to maintain the elevation of the lifted leg.

4. Stay cool, calm, and collected.
