2. How would yoga prevent injury for sports? Creating stronger joints and flexible muscles can help prevent injuries. Strong ankles are critical to many sports including football, basketball, soccer, and skiing. Runners, body builders and swimmers also benefit from the practice of Bikram yoga for its strong cardiovascular workout. Bikram yoga helps strengthen all joints including the ankles (“Bikram Yoga Helps Prevent ”). Yoga and running naturally complement each other, say advocates. New York Road Runners, the 40,000-plus member organization that manages the ING New York City Marathon, offers a Yoga for Runners series through Manhattan-based Pure Yoga. “Yoga deepens your lung capacity. It slowly and consciously stretches your muscles to prevent injury,” says Dana Slamp, a managing instructor at Pure Yoga. “The most important thing that I find in the runners I train is that it strengthens their core muscles, which improves form and leads to an economy of movement and that of course improves performance significantly,” adds Ms. Slamp, who first tried yoga as a way to rehab a running injury (Practicing yoga can help prevent injury ).

4. what is yoga? Yoga is a scientific system of physical and mental practices that originated in India more than three thousand years ago. Its purpose is to help each one of us achieve our highest potential and to experience enduring health and happiness. With Yoga, we can extend our healthy, productive years far beyond the accepted norm and, at the same time, improve the quality of our lives (“ What is Yoga ”). You have two sources that begin with this listed in your works cited. Which one is this? –The word Yoga comes from the Sanskrit word "Yuj" meaning to yoke, join or unite. This implies joining or integrating all aspects of the individual - body with mind and mind with soul - to achieve a happy, balanced and useful life, and spiritually, uniting the individual with the supreme ( “ What is Yoga?." Iyengar Yoga” ). –.

5. In India, Yoga is considered one of the six branches of classical philosophy and is referred to throughout the Vedas - ancient Indian scriptures and amongst the oldest texts in existence.The Upanishads are also broadly philosophical treatises which postdate the Vedas and deal with the nature of the "soul" and universe. However, the origins of yoga are believed to be much older than that, stemming from the oral traditions of Yogis, where knowledge of Yoga was handed down from Guru (spiritual teacher) to Sisya (spiritual student) all the way back to the originators of Yoga, "the Rishis," who first began investigation into the nature of reality and man's inner world. Legend has it that knowledge of Yoga was first passed by Lord Shiva to his wife Parvati and from there into the lives of men ("What is Yoga?." Iyengar Yoga) You need a second source of information for this question. What is yoga?

6. what are the disadvantages of yoga If you only have 20 minutes a day to spend on your body and your foremost goal is to burn lots of calories, yoga will disappoint you. Although yoga is a sound adjunct to any weight–loss program and has even been shown to promote gradual weight loss, it is not primarily a fat–burning enterprise. The disadvantage of yoga includes some of the methods which are only made by certain groups of individuals as well as specific ages of people. It is difficult to lose some calories with a period of only 20 minutes each day. Yoga being a method of fixing weight problems, there isn’t any progressive lose of weight. The loss of weight is generally abrupt hence not considered a main tool for losing fat. Another downside of yoga practicing is acquiring a skilled teacher for teaching yoga, it’s good to know the trainer you are assigned. Presently there isn’t any qualification for yoga trainers, some groups have their particular voluntary accreditation though other organization award certifications for education that has been completed throughout the Saturday and Sunday courses.

7. What are the advantages of yoga Some of the advantages of yoga are that after a long work day you can relax 20 minutes a day doing yoga.also its very healthy for you to use yoga.

8. what are the benefits of using yoga to help an athlete for a game Flexibility – Strength – Balance – Agility Flexibility can be increased by doing yoga, which can, in turn, help prevent injury and improve performance. Balance, agility and a strong, stable foundation are important for athletic performance. So much in athletic training research is pointing to the benefits of using the body’s own mass to build strength, balance, stability and agility. For over 5,000 years, Yoga has been doing just that ( Jan Yuvan). Punctuate your in-text citation the same way that it is punctuated in your works cited.

9. Many athletes are now using yoga to supplement their regular exercises and improve their performance. Yoga can help with many things from helping your back, improving your balance, increasing your flexibility, and strengthening your core. Whether you play golf, basketball, or tennis, you can get a lot more from your plays by starting yoga. Most athletes probably think that their regular training is enough. After all, many athletes put a lot into their training and workouts. It's hard to believe that something like yoga can make a difference. However, the reality is that yoga has many benefits no matter what kind of physical activity you engage in (“How Yoga Can Help Athletes Improve Performance”).
