Perfect Bound Angle Pose Technique

Bound Angle Pose (Baddha Konasana), also known as Butterfly Pose, is a fundamental hip opener that stretches the inner thighs and groins while promoting introspection. ChAIron's AI coaching ensures proper spinal alignment and safe progression for optimal hip mobility.
