Reddit reviews Power Yoga for Athletes: More than 100 Poses and Flows to Improve Performance in Any Sport

In general I have had a hard time coming by any training/exercise books with just as high a quality as overcoming gravity.I have also heard a lot of praise for Becoming a Supple Leopard, but the little I have read of it (some of the crossfit boxes I come at have it for the members to use) had not really been my style.I have instead opted to incorporate Yoga in my mobility and flexibility routine, mostly because I like doing Ashtanga yoga but seldom have the time for it.Here a lot of the theoretical stuff on building a training and such from overcoming gravity has proved helpfull in combination with Power Yoga for Athletes, as I have been able to create my own practice. There are also a lot pre-made practice in the book. Every pose is well described as well as showing where the stretches are and even giving advice to which sports it will benefit (I do however believe that you need to create a practice which works the whole body instead of only doing things which will benefit a certain sport). Edit Note, remember yoga is not about getting into the exact same position (as one who has practiced for years) or look good, but to feel the stretch, then it dos not matter how far you go, it will come with time.

In addition to this I have relied on youtube, here Tom Merrick have a lot of good videos on stretching, mobility and flexibility. Emmet Louis has some good videos, especially on shoulder and overhead mobility.And if you want to take an approach more in a yoga style I will recommend Saturno Movement.

Right now I am following a yoga program by Saturno Movement through his academy (paid web platform) and like it, but I would look into the other things to see if they fit my need before signing up for it, especially if you only feel that mobility and flexibility are the only areas you need more guidance/inspiration in.

here are 4 i found online, all under $20:

Real Men Do Yoga: amazon

The Athlete's Guide to Yoga: amazon again

Power Yoga for Athletes: guess what it's amazon (This one looks especially good for healing injury type things)

Wear and Tear: Stop the Pain and Put the Spring Back in Your Body: yknow (So I know this is kinda for an older age group but it looks really good for joint pain)

Hope these help :)
