The Athlete’s Pocket Guide to Yoga
Athletes come to the practice of yoga with muscle tightness from hours spent training and little time in their weekly schedules for lengthy sessions. At the height of the season, they often disappear from yoga classes altogether in favor of demanding sport-specific training, yet it is then that yoga can be most beneficial.
Sage Rountree makes it easy for athletes to reap the benefits of yoga year-round. The Athlete’s Pocket Guide to Yoga is set up to complement a rigorous training schedule.
