I believe less bend of the knee means more safety. So, perpharps I would start with something like staying position, no hands, if I were to begin such training.
I'm curious, how long should one hold each of these asanas at most? I wouldn't want to injure myself, yet want to limber up my hips and legs enough to attain padmasana on both sides within the safest yet quickest amount of time.
@transitory22 there is almost no need to hold the asana, but what you should want to hold is a feeling. however, for some stretching purposes I've come to very specific conclusion on all new positions: you might want to hold about 1-4 sec (or less) when it is very cold and from 15 sec when it is very warm. if hold a possition for a short time, you might want to repeat it several times on both sides.
How do you do that? I've never tried Yoga before and I can't even bend my legs that way!
