Re: Yoga
I did Hatha yoga for a long time when I was playing hockey pretty seriously. I was a goalie, so the increased flexibility was awesome.
I have to say, the 5 minutes spent relaxing laying down on the mats after each session was easily the best I felt all week. |

Causes massive release of endorphins. Enough so that you can even feel slightly stoned.

There is little to no benefit from stretching anything for more than 20 seconds. Stretch for shorter periods than most yoga requires and you will gain flexibility at the same rate and not risk injury. Then meditate if you want to gain the mental relaxation you might miss out on by cutting the stretching short. [/ QUOTE ] Stuey, Actually I've been doing yoga since 1995 and there are some benefits you may not be aware of. Think of a bodybuilder that works out their muscles - the muscles grow big but what about inside the body, the internal organs? This is one of the side benefits of yoga. It is a workout for the bodies internal mechanisim. On what type of yoga to practise, I recommend Ashtanga yoga. Also, stay away from doing standing head exercises for at least a couple of months, no matter what your instructor may tell you. |

Just this morning in the steam sauna of my gym I was strongly advised by two respectable gentleman to get into yoga. Apparently there are substantial health benefits to doing it, but also and quite seriously it seems that a ton of hot bitches are into yoga. We have a lot of yoga classes at my gym and I can't help but notice that the chicks that go into or come out of those classes are usually very fit, often hot chicks with really bangin bodies, which they're willing to display through their tight clothing.
