Question by mmagrandpa: How can I work up to the plow position? (Yoga)?
My build is short and thick. I have had some lower back problems that limit my flexibility in that region. For that reason, I find it impossible to get into the plow position. What type of exercises/stretches can I do to work my way up to being able to roll into the plow?

If it makes a difference, I don’t really ‘do’ yoga, but use it as a warm up/warm down from MMA and Jiu Jitsu workouts.

Thanks.

lay on your back, and lift up your legs slightly. each time, lift higher. it strengthens your lower abdomens and helps you build up to doing the plow.
