As a PT, one thing I absolutely love my clients integrate in their schedule is Yoga. And often times, I find that my clients see how much it benefits their running. But, I also know other runners will overlook the benefits of Yoga, and have trouble finding where to fit another activity in to their weekly schedule, or they just don’t know where to start. So today, I have Dominique Bonura here to discuss why runners should doing Yoga, how it can benefit your running, and how to ease into Yoga as a runner.
