Yoga for Runners
Yoga can be very useful for athletes and sports people of various disciplines. In this video I explore some of the benefits of yoga for runners. Runners can suffer from stiff hips, quads, hamstrings, and a tight muscle called quadratus lumborum.
if you want to do more my “yoga class for hips” will do wonders for you too, alternate between the 2 a bit.
In this video I demonstrate the following poses:
standing forward bend / uttanasana
downward facing dog pose / adho mukha svanasana
low lunge / Anjaneyasana
hamstring tretches
intense side stretch or pyramid pose or runners stretch / parvottanasana
triangle pose / utthita trikonasana
