Definitely yes. At present I am doing what’s called yoga 🧘♀️ burn. You do yoga with a resistance band and do cardio all in one. This is a really workout. I do it everyday as it helps to energise and set me up for the day!
Absolutely. Exercise does not mean cardio. Exercise is working your body in all different ways to build strength, health, and endurance. Yoga requires balance, core strength, focus, and helps stretch those muscles that become tight from lifting weights or doing cardio. I mixed in 1-2 yoga sessions with my other workouts every week.
Yes! Yoga can be used in varies ways and teach you about muscles you didn’t even know you had! Whether you’re trying to use it to unwind or jumpstart your day, or simply lose weight, yoga can help. Especially for toning muscles!
(Abs)olutley. You are stretching and toning your muscles. And building yourself to be flexible and balanced. Yoga does wonders.
I think yes, it’s about the routine of moving in the morning, I don’t have a lot of energy and I’m trying to fight the habit of just laying in bed with social media so even 4 rounds of welcoming the sun is much better. I’m alo dancing in my free time and I’m not trying to loose any weight so yoga is perfect for me.
Yes. I believe we should keep our bodies balanced. And stretching and yoga also give us the fondation to improve ourselves in every aspect. It makes us more aware of our body and also helps to relax , which is also very important. For me, yoga is a very complete way to workout. I am an athlete so this exercise is not enough but it helps a lot on my overall health, mood and focus.
Stretching can speed up your metabolism and make you healthier and live longer. I wouldn’t say it has all the benefits of an exercise due to your heart not pumping as hard as it would from let’s say a run or lifting weights, but it’s better than nothing. As for yoga I would definitely count that!
I think it is, the main thing is that you push yourself. There have been times when yoga class as really hard and I broke out a good sweat from it
I love yoga and it can work your body thoroughly using all muscle groups while connecting to your mind and breathing so that you are present in your body and acknowledging the moment. This allows you to understand how that movement makes you feel, is the muscle tight, does the action soothe? Are you present or going through the motions? Are you being mindful and intentional or using momentum to propel you?
Yes. It depends on what your Yoga sequel you set for yourself For me personally I love stretching the most because I get a chance to mediate.
