Before you read any further, I need to tell you something that can make a drastic effect on your results from training and the performance on the court:. This one secret can help you come over many obstacles on the court and in life. Take the five words and run with them:
[Let go of your ego]
There are athletes that simply have too big of an ego to do something that may hurt their "rep" or whatever. Check the ego at the door and go do your business.
Now that you are focused, let's get to today's topic: Yoga for Athletes.
I came across this video while searching for yoga exercises. The importance for yoga is hidden behind silly society norms like "only women do yoga" or my favourite, "what a loser, he does yoga??" Yoga is known for making the body flexible and the mind calm but it has some benefits that athletes aren't aware of. Injury prevention is the one that strikes me because the fact you athletes spend hours on end training and competing for sport but don't take the necessary steps to take care of that body the rough up.
The following video shows one exercise that is focused on the hip flexor. When I tried this out, I felt an instant sensation of the stretch.
I should mention that this is only one exercise. There are many different exercises, systems and programs that you can follow. I'm in the process of finding the perfect program for athletes. In the meantime, look at forums, websites, or join a source that is basketball oriented. *HINT
PS: Have you done yoga before? What were your experiences and what program did you use?
