Description
Wide-Angle Seated Pose (Samakonasana, a preparatory upright Upavistha Konasana) involves sitting with legs spread wide apart, using the back and core muscles to maintain a straight spine. This position gently engages the hip flexors and quadriceps and creates a mild stretch in the inner thighs and groin even without a forward fold, serving as a warm-up for deeper stretches.
