YOGA

YOGA
The person who leads a disciplined life with practice yoga and pranayama develops incredible physical, mental and spiritual abilities.
The traditional yoga with its transformational sequences is converted in power yoga to burn calories for building lean muscle mass and reduce fat to increase the BMR (basal metabolic rate) has already established it as one of the best tools for weight loss and body toning. The practitioner feels stronger, healthier and energized to carry out day to day activities with minimal risks of injury. The misconception that ‘yoga does not help in muscle building’ is wrong because while practicing yoga, we exercise by putting our body in different postures that are controlled with support of our muscles as such lean muscle mass is built, yes huge fleshy muscles for muscleman (pahalwan) are not built. After the muscles now come to the flexibility, about it also is misconception that yoga suit more to women than men because their body is more flexible. Whereas while exercising yoga flexibility is not only needed but it is also created as such requirement of yoga is more to men than women. Admitted fact is that initiation into yoga will gradually make the body supple and flexible which is a major requirement of good health and well being, it does not matter who need less or who need more. On regular practicing yoga you may notice the transformational effects in your personality with sound physical and mental health.
