One-Legged Half Wheel

This variation of Half Wheel will increase flexibility in your spine and shoulders while also toning your thighs.

Lie on your back with your knees bent and your feet planted as close to your bum as possible. Press into your feet and shoulders and lift your hips into the air, supporting your weight by placing your hands on your lower back.
Stay here, enjoying Half Wheel pose, or to tone your thighs even more, walk your feet together so your big toes are touching. Shift weight into your left foot, and when you're feeling stable, slowly lift your right leg into the air.
After five breaths, gently lower your leg to the bed. Find your balance and then slowly lift your left leg for another five breaths.

This is false advertising at its best. If you can do these poses on a bed, then why don't they show this in the photos. Can these poses really be maintained on a bed???
