Book Reviews of The Athlete's Guide to Yoga: An Integrated Approach to Strength, Flexibility, and Focus

Book Review: A Must Have Book For Athletes
Summary: 5 Stars

Yes I have a couple of good athlete DVDs that I am using to improve in the sport I enjoy playing and they are very good. But there is also nothing like having a very good reference book on the subject and this one is one of the best I have picked up.

It contains a an invaluable section on how yoga can be added to a training program (more in a Why? sense) and another section is a detailed guide on how to implement yoga into training. These sections are so good that if there was nothing else in the book it is a must have on your book shelf if you have any interest in yoga as part of the training. But it does not end there.

There is a section on the poses themselves which show the poses in easy to understand terms and images. No matter how good you are at yoga, you will find something in these sections to help.

The review is basically this - get this book if you have considered yoga for athletic endeavors at any point. Even if it was just a passing thought, this book will make it more.
