Yoga for Explosive Strength

Today, I'm going to perform yoga poses and use body strength instead of lifting weights.

I searched for a series of poses to use, and I came across this article (here) and video (here) on Men's Health titled Yoga for Explosive Strength. This series of poses will open up the hips and stretch the hamstrings and calves and everything else that needs to unwind.

One thing I know about yoga is that there is no other way to sweat more while standing still. Try it.

I'll report back.
