Chakrasana comes from the word chakra, which means wheel in Sanskrit, since the posture resembles a wheel. It is a deep back bend that demands flexibility and strength in several parts of the body simultaneously, including the shoulders, arms, wrists, abdominals, back, legs and gluts. It is one of the most effective ways to open the front of the body.
