Benefits of Combining Weight Training and Yoga
-
Yoga improves flexibility, posture, strength, balance, coordination and body awareness, this enhances your weight training by improving your overall form which will allow you to perform better, lift more and deepen your range of motion to see more results in your strength and endurance.
-
Adding yoga into your weight training week is so beneficial for recovery and rest. Yoga helps to reduce the lactic acid in your muscles, loosen them up and get the blood flowing. Yoga will provide your body with the necessary recovery to get the most out of your weight training.
-
Mixing yoga and Weight training helps with your overall physical and mental health. Weight training helps to maintain and increase bone density, prolong the deterioration of muscle mass in aging, helps to prevent diseases and boosts your metabolism and confidence! Yoga helps to reduce stress, relax the mind and improve endorphin levels which improves mental health. Both yoga and weight training reduces chances of injury. Adding both to your week gives you a well rounded healthy mind and body.
