Strength and Conditioning Yoga Strong Challenge
This video series uses a combination of isometric, concentric, and eccentric resistance training positions and movements to optimize the efficiency of the muscular system. Yoga is often thought of as an activity to stretch muscles and gain flexibility, thereby creating a space for mindfulness and tranquility. Although it is true that intentional movement can lower stress and increase awareness, passive stretching can cause injury and joint instability.
This series of Yoga workouts features joint-friendly strength training to help you work within your body's natural barriers to range of motion. Strengthen the abdominal, chest, hip, back, shoulder, arm, and leg muscles with improved range of motion.
