WHY YOGA?
In today’s “better, faster, stronger” athletic society, people are over stressed. They are finding it difficult to balance exercise, weight lifting and conditioning sessions, injury treatment, rigorous work, erratic schedules, and social pressures from work, society, and family experiences. Not only does this type of lifestyle cause great physical stress, but it has psychological impacts as well. For many athletes, the volume and intensity of training and everyday life distract them from the true goal of training, which is to increase overall Health through improving or maintaining athletic performance. The overtraining principle relies on the body’s ability to break down and adapt to the stresses it has experienced, assuming the body undergoes a complete recovery process. The number of athletes who are overtraining and accrue insufficient rest is increasing. Inadequate physiological and psychological recovery from training may lead to overtraining and underperformance. Effective recovery is crucial for everyone. It is necessary for their health, safety and balance in combating physical and mental stress. While decreasing training intensity and volume may not be enough, athletic programs should provide for their athletes modalities for recovery, both physiological and psychological from a busy athletic lifestyle. Physical health and recovery are prioritized in any kind of physical exercise protocol, but increasing attention is now directed towards psychological recovery and mental health. Repercussions of poor psychological recovery consist of depression, anxiety, burnout, and unhealthy coping strategies like substance abuse or sleep disorders . The practice of yoga for recovery in sport is beginning to emerge because of its numerous physiological and psychological benefits, many of which overlap the needs of athletes for recovery. Yoga practice relates to improvements in performance parameters like flexibility, muscular strength and endurance, and cardiovascular performance. Physiological health factors such as heart rate, diastolic blood pressure, immune function, reductions in inflammation, and muscle soreness are studied in conjunction with yoga intervention. Yoga positively affects psychological health measures such as anxiety, depression, stress, and mood states.
