DVD Reviews of The Athlete's Guide to Yoga: A Personalized Practice for Strength, Flexibility, and Focus

DVD Review: Great workout that can be customized to suit your needs.
Summary: 5 Stars

I have a back injury (most likely from running). I have a disc that is herniated and a couple of areas that are torn etc. I was going stir crazy, so I was told I could try doing Yoga to increase my core strength and flexibility. This was my first Yoga DVD.

It is great that I can pick and choose which routines to do. Customizing my routines for what I need or what I have to do. The routines that are high impact will wait for later. I now do the back, hams and core twice each. I have had very few problems and I can complete the workouts.

I have seen a noticeable improvement in my flexibility and a decrease in the pain associated with the injury. Before I started this Yoga routine I was 10" from being able to touch the floor. Yesterday, I almost had my palms flat on the floor. I am not saying this is a cure all. I am also lifting weights, walking and using a Tens Unit. So I am putting a significant effort into the process of healing. The routines from this DVD really stretch my back, hams, core etc and the stretch feels great.

I am sold on Yoga. It will be part of my workout routine for the rest of my life.

The workouts are easy to follow and her voice is soothing. I recommend this DVD for everyone looking for a quality Yoga DVD, even Non-Athletes.

DVD Review: Got just what I hoped for instead of the usual disappointment.
Summary: 5 Stars

This is the best yoga video I ever used. Most dvd's in my collection I don't like and they just sit. This one I will use over and over and over. The flow is wonderful and realistic. Perfect mix and I like how you can make a choice of what you want to do.

DVD Review: Exactly what I'd been looking for.
Summary: 5 Stars

I've been looking for a good yoga video to help with both stretching and strength training. I'm 40 and a triathlete and the wear and tear of daily training has been really hard on my body. I've used this video a number of times now and find it easy to follow but fast paced. I have a favorite pilates dvd that is great but it runs at a beginner's pace making it really annoying when you've been doing it for years. This video moves right along and has many different workouts to choose from. I really like it!

DVD Review: I like it.
Summary: 5 Stars

This is my first yoga DVD. Pretty straight forward. I like the 3 preset workouts, plus you can customize to your liking. Easy to follow after the first couple of time. It might be easier if you already know how to do yoga. I did not.

DVD Review: Great for athletes who want to add yoga to their training
Summary: 5 Stars

We've wanted to add yoga to our training for years. But between the jobs and the kids, we never made the time for a drive to a class or found a dvd we loved. (If we had the time, we'd always opt for cardio and wind up running or cycling)
This DVD is perfect for us. The 3 programs are each about 50 min and the presentation of the 3 levels is very helpful. Being able to customize a session by selecting up to 12 segments is a great feature.
It may not be ideal someone who has been practicing yoga for a long time, but it my husband and I like it very much.

Description of The Athlete's Guide to Yoga: A Personalized Practice for Strength, Flexibility, and Focus

Yoga makes good athletes better. This time-honored discipline imparts flexibility, balance, and whole-body strength, creating improvements in an athlete s form, efficiency, and power. In addition, yoga s attention to concentration and breath awareness improves mental focus and mental endurance hidden assets that become especially important at the end of a long training session or race. In The Athlete s Guide to Yoga, yoga instructor, endurance athlete, and coach Sage Rountree and two of her pupils demonstrate three levels of modifications appropriate for athletes.

Choose from 7 preset routines targeting different points in the training cycle and addressing specific problem areas, or arrange segments in any order to build a custom workout lasting anywhere from two minutes to two hours.
