Stand up with legs 4 to 5 feet apart. Place your right foot at 90 degrees angle with the toes pointing out while keeping your left foot at 45 degrees angle. Bring your hands at shoulder level and keep them parallel to the ground.

Bend your right knee and look towards your right hand. Keep your hip-square and the right thigh parallel to the ground. Hold onto the pose for 10 to 15 seconds, then release the posture.

Health benefits of warrior pose:
