Is yoga beneficial to boxers?

Ask Rickson Gracie if real men don't do Yoga and try to ***** slap him, I'd pay good money to see that because he'd beat the **** out of you, break your arms then choke you out!



Of course Yoga is good for any sport, it makes your tendons more flexible, the breathing is great for both aerobic and anaerobic endurance and it relaxes and relieves stress!

Rickson Gracie does yoga? I didn't know that. (Then again I don't follow mma that much.)

Yoga is more than just stretching. It also requires muscular endurance. Its not as easy as it looks. It is benificial to all sports.

If Floyd does it, it must be the greatest thing ever.

[DreamFYS]

surely it's beneficial to anyone whether they're athletes or not.

I'm sure it's good for you but............this COO dude at my work is a yoga head, he is also a ghey. I don't know if there is a true 1-1 correlation on that but it is what it is.

I don't see why fat yoga Floyd wouldn't benefit. Ayone see how fat he looked doing Yoga?

Anyways, he didnt even really do it. He started it, ate mcdonalds, got a massage, and stretches his hammies. He didnt actually do much of anything.

[Da Machine]

Yoga is probably only good for the mind, like meditation, physically nah.

Fun fact: There is actually no legitimate proof that stretching actually helps with pain, soreness or anything like that.

Stretching is of the utmost importance to staying healthy as an athlete. That doesn't mean it has to be in Yoga form.

Ever see how flexible those jacked NFL dudes are?
