Every January 1 we all make a New Year’s resolution to get in shape and go to the gym. But taking a routine between weight machines, elliptical bikes or aerobics classes is very difficult for us, since It’s not easy to start from scratch with a new routine..
One of the most recommended disciplines in gyms is yoga. A complete sport that unites body and mind and that helps us tone up arms, legs and abdomen. Within the world of yoga, there are many disciplines, and one that has taken a lot of strength in recent years has been Bikram Yogaor yoga with heat.
This discipline of yoga is a 90 minute fitness workout which improves physical strength, flexibility and balance while increasing mental clarity and concentration. The sessions of 26 postures include breathing exercises, and what characterizes it is that it is practiced in a room with a temperature of 40-42ºC.
The heat in this discipline is fundamental, because combined with a sequence of postures, it allows us to warm up the muscles and thus be able to work more deeply in a shorter period of time. The heat removes the trauma of stretching, heals and prevents injuries. Besides, sweating helps eliminate toxins of our body giving us a spectacular glow from head to toe.
Bikram Yoga is a discipline that many celebrities have followed for years from Jennifer AnistonGeorge ClooneyMadonna, the bullfighter Miguel Abellán, the model Mayte de la Iglesia or the blogger Fiona Ferrer are fans of this sport. And you, are you signing up for Bikram Yoga?
