Beginner’s Tips
If you find it tough to prevent your elbows from sliding far away from one another during this pose, buckle a strap and loop it over your upper arms, just higher than your elbows. Extend your arms straight in front of you at shoulder height and modify the strap so it hugs your outer arms. Then use the strap within the pose. However, consider pushing the arms slightly in, away from the strap, instead of letting them deform into it.
NOTE: Before you start this, consult your doctor or an exercise professional about this pose. Don't try to do it alone.
