Actor Ananya Panday may not give us glimpses of her workout routine regularly but she seems to be really pushing her fitness levels. 

In an Instagram post shared by Anshuka Yoga, a celebrity yoga Instructor,  the 22-year-old actor is seen doing the Bridge yoga pose with a block supporting her back. Take a look:

“Blocks are truly your best friend when you’re trying to understand alignment and get deeper into postures. Even advanced practitioners find blocks useful to explore the asana anatomy or use them for deep relaxation,” wrote Anshuka Yoga in her post.

Bridge pose, also known as Setu Bandha Sarvangasana is a backbend asana in hatha yoga. Setu is a Sanskrit word meaning ‘bridge’ and Bandha meaning ‘bind’. Among the health benefits of the Setu Bandhasana asana are improved circulation of blood and better digestion. Practising this yoga asana can also help reduce fatigue, anxiety, and insomnia. The bridge pose can also help in relieving the symptoms of asthma and high blood pressure.

Here’s how you can rock the Bridge pose:

•Lie on your back with your arms alongside your body, palms facing downwards, pressing into the floor.

•Bend your knees, planting the feet into the mat, hip width apart.

•Press down into the arms and shoulders to lift the chest up.

•Breathe and hold for a  few seconds then exhale and slowly roll the spine back to the floor.
