Yoga is recommended as an overall workout routine that helps in strengthening the body and the mind as well. Yoga, however, is thought to be not a part of the workout routine for athletes. People involved in various sports activities often opt for high intensity workouts and refrain from taking up yoga in their routine. However, yoga is for everyone. Especially, yoga helps in improving the athletic performance and should be incorporated in the daily fitness routine. It helps in improving the core strength and stability. It also helps in improving the balance and focus of the body – some of the most primary things needed in athletics. Yoga also helps in improving flexibility and range of motion of the body.
