It is no secret that Malaika Arora swears by yoga; the fitness enthusiast has caught our attention time and again by acing various yoga poses. A while ago, Malaika showed us how to do Halasana, an inverted yoga posture. This time, she took to Instagram to post a picture of herself doing another asana which needs a lot of flexibility.

In her latest post, Malaika is seen doing Parivrtta Utkatasana or Revolved Chair Pose. The pose strengthens the middle and lower back and increases flexibility of the spine. It tones the thighs, buttocks and hips, according to yogaoutlet.com. It also tones digestive organs, helps in detoxification and improves overall health.

“This pose can be tricky so please be careful and only do as much as your body allows you to!” wrote the Chhaiya Chhaiya star alongside the picture. She also explained how to do the yoga pose.
