ABSTRACT:

For over 5,000 years, yoga has been practised. Over time, a number of schools and yoga organisations developed. You may discover a yoga style that connects with you at first. If you are a competitive athlete, your Yoga practise is best adapted to your workout programme, because some muscle parts may grow and others ignore. This process creates muscle and joint imbalances over time and results in excessive damage. Yoga helps muscles, tendons and ligaments move through the whole range of movements and thus cultivates balance and core strength. I'm happy I have discovered Yoga and incorporated it to my weekly exercise, a tri-athlete from San Diego, Heidi Resiert. Heidi says. I feel not just stronger, but trust that I will continue to suffer without harm. Breath work is another important aspect of yoga (pranayama). Athletes may regard breathing attention during yoga as one of the most significant advantages. Learning to remain concentrated and focused in an uncomfortable position by focusing on even breathing and expiration enables the athlete to remain focused throughout a race or difficult training. The link between the mind and body in yoga is important for athletes to improve mental clarity and focus. Yoga also helps you relax not just tense muscles but nervous and worried brains. Not only does yoga operate on the sagittal plane, it works also on the frontal and transverse planes to ensure complete growth. Also athletic performance will benefit from being more calm. So, why not improve your play performance by incorporating yoga to your training regimen today and avoid injury.
