prasarita padottanasa vinyasa counting question

[Guest guest]

my understanding is that one inhales on odd vinyasa counts and exhales

on even vinyasa counts. for example, in sun sal a

 

1 - ekam - inhale

2 - due - exhale

3 - trini - inhale

 

etc

 

but in prarsarita padottanasa, the third vinyasa (trini) is the state

of the vinyasa and one always go into it on an exhale. this

contradicts the rule mentioned above.

 

is the rule about odd/even inhale/exhale not as 100% followed as i

thought? or am i missing something?

 

thanks,

andrew
