How to do a Backbend Hold (Elevated)
Sit in front of an elevated surface or object like a box. Position your hands beside your head with your fingers pointing towards your feet and your feet underneath your knees. Push the floor away through your arms and legs. Squeeze your butt, lower back, mid back, upper back, and look your head towards your hands. Bend only as far as you feel comfortable. To come back down start by bending your elbows, tucking your head back in, and landing on your upper back/back of your neck.
