Real Men Do Yoga!
We’ve all heard about it.
From Andy Murray, Evader Holy field, to Ryan Giggs and the entire All Blacks Team… it seems like recently, men on the planet are raving about how great yoga is for getting you to the top of your game — increasing endurance, improving mental focus and toning muscle. ?
yoga is no longer this mysterious activity involving bendy girls in tights…
…nor is it the smelly-hippy guru-swami bollocks we all presumed.
Instead, PROFESSIONAL BUSINESSMEN in their droves are starting to cotton on to the fact that yoga really is great for staying trim, enhancing performance, and sculpting muscle, as well as truly focusing the mind…something that is essential in modern business today. ?
Plus, whilst heart disease remains the number one killer in men across Australia, a recent study in the US has shown that regular yoga practice for a minimum of 10 weeks can improve pulmonary function. Yoga really can improve your heart health!❤

ENGAGING EVERY muscle in the body, yoga provides you with stability, endurance, more efficient breathing volume, and accelerated recovery — allowing your muscles to become stronger and sculpted… faster.?
Still think yoga is wimpy?
Below is a quick yoga routine men can do to begin their yoga journey. While the movements aren’t designed to kill, they will certainly challenge the body.
Child’s Pose:
Get down on all fours and spread your knees and hands a bit wider than shoulder-length apart.
Press the top part of your feet flat.
Sit on your heels, lean forward and stretch your arms as far as you can. Rest your forehead on the floor and maintain the position for up to three minutes.
Downward Dog:
Start on a mat on your knees and hands. Keep the knees under the hips and your hand a bit forward from your shoulders. Turn your toes under and breathe out and lift your knees off the floor. Extend your tailbone up. Press the heels in the floor and hold the position for one to three minutes.
Cobra:
Lie face down on an exercise mat. Position your toes behind you. Put your hands flat on the floor beside your ribs. Breathe in and use your hands to push your head and chest up. Lean your head back until you feel a deep stretch and hold the position for one to three minutes.
Boat Pose:
Sit on the floor and extend your legs in front of you. Straighten your back up and flex your feet backward. Lean back and lift your feet off the floor. Put your hands under your thigh and pull gently to stretch your lower back.
Slowly lift your legs higher and rest the palms of your hands behind your head. Hold this position for five to 15 breaths.
The benefits of yoga for men are endless!
