Exploring Strength and Flexibility in Yoga with Jules Mitchell
*Scroll down to listen- What if yoga could build strength in ways you never imagined? Jules Mitchell, an expert in yoga biomechanics, explains that yoga involves both strength and flexibility, emphasizing the importance of the nervous system's role in strength development. Strength is not just about muscle size but also about coordination and motor unit recruitment. Yoga enhances body awareness and coordination, complementing traditional strength training. Integrating yoga with strength training leads to a balanced and holistic approach to fitness and well-being. Yoga practitioners should embrace its diverse benefits, while yoga teachers should educate students holistically and foster inclusivity.
