What is Fitness-Yoga?

 
Yoga is often a form of exercise that is associated with meditation, breathing exercises or seemingly impossible positioning of the body in awkward looking poses. However, there may be more to it as everyone now seems to be doing a different kind of Yoga: Fitness Yoga.

Though, this new exercise trend may seem new, Fitness-Yoga is actually more than 5, 000 years old.

In addition, its cousin, the very efficient Pilates, was discovered as long ago as the 1920's.

Now, it must be stressed that for fitness, Yoga is a pretty good choice both for the body and mind.

With its Sun Salutations and several poses, ranging from the simple to the elaborate, a practitioner seeking the use of Yoga for Fitness, is endowed with strength, flexibility and immense toning.

In addition, Yoga's unique breathing exercises are quite sufficient and effective aerobic exercises all into themselves.

Furthermore, for more fitness options, combining the use of Yoga with other types of body-weight exercises, such as calisthenics could also be a very wise choice for optimal fitness and health.

Several people are discovering these benefits and they range from athletes, to dancers to body-builders.

It has been said that old East-Indian Wrestlers and Yoga Sages have 'swapped' ideas for fitness training programs and the results today are the Yoga-Esque Hindu Push-ups, Squats and Back-Bridge.

These 3 core exercises for the workout program of Fitness Guru and Author, Matt Furey. In addition, even religious monks have combined some specific Yoga Poses to form the acclaimed 5-Tibetan Rites.

So it is quite easy to see that Yoga's versatility, benefits and styles are indeed gems for fitness training, perhaps all you need is a trial to confirm this for yourself.

Foras Aje

Foras Aje was born in Washington DC and at the age of four moved with his family to Ijebu-Igbo, Ogun State, Nigeria. It was here that he was endowed by his father with a desire to delve into the cause and reasons for occurrences and results.

This lent itself into finding the solutions to the maladies acne and asthma, of which he was suffering, after other conventional methods proved unsuccessful. Consequently, this placed him on the path of naturopathy otherwise known as drugless healing.

Through a radical change in diet and exercise: (Yoga and Calisthenics), he was able to banish close to a decade of his marring acne and a lifetime of asthma. Along with this came the disappearance of depression, lethargy and a marked increase in overall health and fitness.

Convinced of the efficiency of the methods passed down from great health pioneers, in his words: "My goal is to show as many people as I can the wonderful results of Nature's way of healing the body if she's only given half a chance! There is no limit to the potential the human body has when it adheres to her laws! With proper diet, positive mental attunement and exercise, any and everyone can unshackle the bondage of misery and disease in one's own life."
