The Cobra pose or Bhujangasana is a basic Hatha yoga pose that targets your shoulders, upper back, and spine. This pose is also believed to help in improving digestion as well as purify the body.

  • Place your hands underneath your shoulders so that your elbows close to your body.
  • Inhale and lift your head and chest off the floor. Keep your shoulders relaxed.
  • Hold the pose for 2-3 full breaths. Exhale and lower yourself back onto the ground.

Dwichakrikasana or Cycling Yoga Pose

This yoga pose can also provide strength to back, hip, and thighs and improve blood circulation.

  • Lie down on your back, keeping your arms on the sides, and relax.
  • Hold your breath and lift your one leg and bend up at the knee
  • Bring your ankle near the hip and rotate it like you’re paddling a bicycle.

Shirshasana or Headstand Pose

Shirshasana is described as the king of all yoga poses because of its amazing physical, psychological, and mental health effects. It has to be practiced by intermediate yoga practitioners.

  • Slowly raise the legs either one by one or together, in the vertical position. Keep the body straight.
  • Stay in this position for as long as it feels comfortable, breathing normally.

Caution: Always consult a physician and take the help of a properly trained teacher before starting a yoga practice.

Diet tips for weight gain

In addition to these yoga poses, Ramdev also suggested some diet tips for weight gain. He asked people who are underweight to eat a high protein diet and a lot of bananas (6 bananas in the morning and 6 bananas in the evening). According to him, taking milk and banana or banana with curd daily in the morning can help increase your weight significantly. The yoga guru also recommended underweight people to consume mangoes, ashwagandha (mixing the powder with milk), dates (5-5 dates in the morning and evening), yogurt, buttermilk, and soybeans.
