I didn’t want to post a new thread but I have similar issues with this pose. I’ve been doing Bikram for a while and my elbows are not getting more flexible and I find that locust pose is really painful. I have bends in my elbows and the instructors say that the elbow pain will go away with time but it does not seem to be doing this for me. I don’t have a particulary large bust and I try to move my weight to my shoulders but the pain is still excruciating and I can barely get my legs up. This is in all variations – one leg lift and both legs. I’m not sure how to alleviate this pain and the instructors always insist that we have the arms underneath us and that the pain will go away.
