RUNNING AND YOGA - THE PERFECT COMBINATION

Beginning of the year, you could already read that I am doing my sporting focus this year on yoga and running. Yoga and running have little in common but are for me the perfect combination and complement each other ideally. While I can get out of my way while walking, I go to yoga and get to rest.

Yoga_und_laufen_joggenWhen stretching, so do the ghosts. Stretch before running, or after? Or is stretching completely unnecessary? I handle it so that I stretch before and after running. I always notice how well I do, especially the muscles that are used during walking to stretch in yoga. Most of the time, I start with suns, and then, depending on my desire , I make three to six additional asanas with which the most important muscle groups are stretched. The downward-facing dog for the stretching of the thigh muscles and the Achilles tendons and for the strengthening of the arms and back, the cobra for the chest musculature (through the stretching of the chest can be positively influenced the respiratory performance) and the back.

By exercising the mobility and strengthening the various muscle groups, the body feeling and the posture improve, which also has a positive effect on the running. After running and the asanas I then sometimes close the deep relaxation (Savasana). As a result, regeneration is accelerated on the one hand, and stress is also relieved on the other hand.
