yoga on days off?
ad
i have been considering doing some yoga on one or both of my days off. i figure that it can only help, but im not sure to what extent. also, since i am still trying to gain right now, im not sure how many days i should do it. plus, i know its a great place to meet women. so, if anyone has any experience with this, i would love some insight. thanks

Three days a week bro..most of the women there are serious about it, but it isn't like a nightclub environment. God damn, i love tight yoga clothes on them though! Helps with recovery in my case. I do it before workout like a really good stretching session. Really helps me get my poor tren brain focused and relaxed..
TropicanaJuicethats weird bro, was thinking of doing the same exact thing tomorrow morning and thursday morning on my off days lol, figure it can help loosen my muscles off get some blood flowing and help with recovery, also the meditation part could help with stress
sgtstedankoDo it... This might be a good start
WARRIOR III POSE:
............
Stand with your feet hip-distance apart.
Shift your weight onto your left foot; lift your right foot 2 to 3 inches off the floor.
Hinge forward at your hips as you raise your right leg behind you. At the same time, straighten your arms in front of you.
Continue raising your right leg and lowering your torso until you're balancing on your left foot with your right leg, torso, and arms parallel to the floor.
Finally, engage your left quadriceps to straighten your leg. Switch legs; repeat.

............
Assume a pushup position with your fingers spread wide, hands at shoulder width, and feet at hip width.
Push off the balls of your feet slightly while contracting your thigh muscles.
Keep your elbows close to your sides, your lower back naturally arched, and your head and neck aligned with your spine. Bend your arms to lower yourself slowly until your upper arms are parallel to the floor, spreading your collarbones to keep your shoulders from hunching.

Stand with your feet parallel and two to three shoulder widths apart.
Rotate your right foot outward until the big toe points directly to the right.

Extend your arms, palms down, with your right arm over your right leg and your left arm over your left leg.
