Yoga Cross Training

Cycling is fun, your quads and hamstrings are at work

Cycling is fun, your quads and hamstrings are at work

Summer is the best time for outdoor exercises. Sports like running,cycling,  golf, soccer, softball, rollerblade etc…
Most of the above sports engage your body balance. If you are off balance, your body will compensate to work around any imbalance.
However, compensation always means the stronger muscles work harder to protect the weaker muscles.
Hence, the muscles will get tight and inflexible. Your body is then vulnerable to injuries.
Yoga is an excellent cross training exercise that provides strength and flexibility.

The Yoga Journal website has published many cross training articles for readers to understand how yoga can help.
