Yoga

Does anyone else use yoga as a form of recovery? Just looking for the best ways not to go completely tight.

Yoga and Pilates are very good for recovery!

Pilate’s twice a week - life changing

[Kimterry Graduate]

Yes, I do Pilates - good for core strength and yoga, which I’ve found very helpful with breathing technique

[UnfitNoMore Graduate]

Yoga is great on a rest day... or even after a run. I do the odd session of it as there’s some on my training plan.

[IannodaTruffe Mentor]

Yoga is great but doesn't replace a good stretching regime immediately after a run.

[Amicie Graduate]

Straight after the run i'm using the knee exercises on the NHS site. I am doing yoga on rest days - not too tiring and all about support/recovery.

[Couchpotato2 Graduate]

I do the nhs stretches and then add some yoga: down dog, forward fold, pigeon which for me is essential, and then a few lower back stretches. I also go to yoga classes.
