Fact #1. If you and your friends enthusiastically frequent the newest hot yoga studio, then you're practicing a form that is itself rather new. Hot yoga, more specifically known as Bikram Yoga, is a practice created in the 1970s by a world famous yogi.
Fact #2. Yoga remained largely an Indian pursuit for much of the Common Era. The practice only made inroads in Western society around the turn of the last century. Throughout the 20th century, yoga slowly grew in popularity in America. In the last few decades of that century, it caught on globally, both as part of a fitness regimen and as a spiritual practice.
Fact #3. The word yoga is interpreted in many ways. It can be taken to mean everything from to unite or exertion or combined. Regardless of the etymological specificity, it's more popular today than at any point during its millenia of history. Those interested in practicing or studying its influences have at their disposal a wealth of source material, with more yoga books joining the panoply each and every year.
Fact #4. Yoga can help build long, lean muscles, and it can do wonders for flexibility. It cannot greatly increase your strength or build developed muscles associated with lifting, however. It can only do so much in terms of cardiovascular fitness development, as well. A savvy athlete will use the practice to help maintain a flexible body and to strengthen his or her core.
Fact #5. The more a fitness enthusiast reads about yoga, the better they can fit its practice into a wider exercise routine. Keep in mind that while many people associate it with its spiritual benefits, there's no need to approach it as anything more than a physical activity. The benefits of limberness and flexibility are without question. This is true even if you question your need for added mind-body and emotional connection.
