Guest guest Posted June 8, 2004 Report Share Posted June 8, 2004 Yoga - some mystical stretching thing where you breathe funny - NOT! A few years ago I was introduced to Ashtanga Yoga. I had tried other types but really didn't like them very well even though they helped me feel better. Ashtanga or " Power " Yoga is much different; it bears no resemblance to what I used to consider " Yoga " . For lack of a better word, it's much more physical, with a greater strength element. You move a lot more, develop a lot (and I mean a lot) of body heat which helps one attain postures more easily. It has cured or alleviated several small injuries from lifting and if I was more dedicated and didn't wait until I was hurting; it might keep some of them from happening. It's certainly a worthwhile addition to one's overall health program. Rice Crooksville, Ohio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
