—— ——
Generally, people believe that 'yoga poses are only suitable for women to practice'
Is this really the case??
Let's give a few examples:
Male hormones are explosive in the NBA, with stars like James representing a bunch of giants who improve their flexibility through yoga practice
In the first season of 'That's Basketball', yoga teachers also led players through yoga to relax their bodies
Captain Deng, under the guidance of his yoga-crazy wife Sun Li, regularly practices yoga
Su Weipeng, 'the Five Princes', included yoga as a mandatory item in his fitness cycle
Don't you still think yoga is just a sport for women?
Tracing back to the source, mainstream yoga styles were invented and created by men. As in the yoga country of India, there are still many heavyweight male yoga teachers
Now, some men are still stopping because of misunderstandings
Let's return to the present, even if yoga doesn't distinguish between men and women, why do men practice it?
Let the editor give you a comprehensive explanation:
1Relaxing aerobic exercise
With the increase of work and life pressures, more and more urbanites need to relax their minds and bodies. As a yoga type of aerobic fitness exercise, yoga emphasizes intention, requiring practitioners to focus on the place where the body is stretched through posture practice, breathing practice and meditation, connecting and communicating the mind and body, and gradually relieving the stiffness and release all tension and annoyance in their mood while feeling the body stiffening

Yoga emphasizes that the body is a balanced big system, and the system is composed of several parts, so that all parts remain in a good state to have a healthy body. Men's yoga focuses on coordinating body functions, promoting body system circulation and achieving better balance
3Eliminate tense states
Long-term work and life pressure has caused chronic stress in men, and men are not good at expressing their inner pressure. Men's yoga through complete breathing, meditation and various posture methods calms the nerves, achieves the purpose of eliminating tension. Through cultivation and practice, achieve yoga's advocated thick virtue, carry things, healthy life outlook. Also naturally keep away from smoking, drinking and other bad habits. Through continuous self-overcoming, let men become more confident for a long time.
4Combat male common health crises
Obesity, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, hyperglycemia, insomnia and anxiety, hair loss and arthritis are increasingly encroaching on young men
At its essence, chronic stress and unhealthy living habits cause the brain to lack awareness, and physical problems follow suit. Without a calm brain, people's emotions are more intense. Chronic stress also leads to a 6-fold increased risk of heart disease and cancer than smoking and high cholesterol. The brain is the most important organ in the human body, and one of the major effects of men's yoga is to help the brain waves return to a calm state, maximizing the effect of the vagus nerve and restore the state of full of energy, combating various sub-health crises.
5Shape a muscular and elegant figure
Male stars are still young at 40, while many 40-year-old men are pot-bellied uncle. In essence, men don't pay attention to their figure like women, and they don't spend time and money on it. After 30, men's obesity rate is very high, which brings many health risks. Practicing men's yoga is particularly effective in reducing localized fat and muscle, increasing body flexibility and helping men maintain normal body shape.
6Gain strength from within
After a period of men's yoga practice, you will be surprised to find that while your weight has decreased by a few kilograms, your mentality has changed significantly. Women practicing yoga are mostly looking for a more perfect figure, and they also pay attention to the beauty of posture when performing actions. Men don't pay much attention to the beauty of actions, but rather appreciate the essence of yoga's body shaping and health care. Although flexibility is important in the initial stage of yoga, as you practice more difficult movements, the requirements for strength increase, and many movements are almost impossible for women to complete, while men can easily complete them.
